Hi does anyone know if you can turbo the i4 engine i am in the middle of planning my project i have now been given an rs2000 i4 enging and gear box and everything for the conversion to go into my mk cabrio was wondering if it was possible to turbo it.

I think it would be very differant

 

yes you can it's expensive... and it's been done.. check out www.rs2000-16v.com one of the members did the I4 turbo..

 

Kenny from MSD did a nice one iirc

 

easy possible, wouldnt be too expensine. bottomends are strong enough. best manifold to use is off a 200sx, chop the flange off and get a flange made up to suit your head. de-comp plate (not ideal but lowers your comp) can pick t3's up pretty cheap now. intercooler and finishing touches. could do it for 1k+ if everything went rite, which it never does

good look fella, there good engines

 

Thats brilliant thanks for all your help guys. I am new around here but am hoping to get the car done and come to a few shows or meets this year

 

Get your cash out and get the money spent nd get it done.
