Default Re: Adding a turbo

Welcome to the forum.

There's a heck a lot more than throwing in someone else's turbo into your PT, and it'll be a major expense. Not to mention that the non-turbo engine isn't built to take a lot of HP. The turbo engine from the factory is built to withstand the punishment that the turbo puts on internal engine parts.

Try a search of the forum for more detailed answers to your question plus here's some added reading for you.
