with 270K on the clock you would probably have worn rings, valve stem seals for a start, chances are you would get significant amounts of blowby and probably other reliability problems due to wear on internal parts. If you wanna turbo i would do all possible tests on the engine first to see if she will last just because u dont wanna spend hard earned $$$ on a turbo conversion and then the motor shit itself a month later.

go have a compression test and a leak down test done... if all is well, boost boost away!

I don't personally have any experience with the TC turbos. I used to have a td05 on my sol, but I don't know how that compares to a tc05
