You've either been misinformed by someone as to how much it costs to do a turbo conversion or you know absolutely stuff all about turbos.

In either case, i suggest you do some research. $500 in most cases will only get you a crap second hand turbo. Then you have to worry about a manifold, injectors, bigger fuel pump, piggy back or decent aftermarket ECU etc... depending on how hardcore you want to go.

by the way - do you have your licence yet?

He is just after a blow-through carby set-up...

The idea came from another thread.
