SLED001 Bronze Donating Members 24 Member For: 14y 5m 18d Gender: Male Location: Adelaide Posted 29/03/11 12:07 PM Share Posted 29/03/11 12:07 PM truly the only reason I considered buying the turbo was because it will be much cheaper and easier to take the turbo off instead of getting all the stuff I need to make the xr6 turbo. obviously either way I go its going to be a fair bit of work and a fair bit of money.No it won't bud.You can't imagine how much it would actually cost and what a headache for you to go this way.You'd end up with a low comp (gutless) N/A for starters....and what are you going to do with the manifolds, intercooler, ECU, exhaust, all your plumbing, etc etc??

Getting an N/A now and adding the turbo or swapping the car for a turbo car is going to cost you money over the long run. You will come out better if you just wait the 2-3 years and drive whatever you have around (I 'inherited' an EB when the rents upgraded). I have about 7 months left on my green's and then I'll be looking at getting a T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't say if it is turbo or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yay backward laws!Really though, do the right thing and just get something cheap as sh*t or legal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
