how hard would it be to install a used turbo on an n/a? or, in other words, how expensive?

ummm.. just the turbo? I think u need a custom spacer for the exhaust manifold, maybe RB sells one? But then u need all the other crap and some customs stuff, you would be better off dropping a complete T2 motor in, with all the other stuff u need. Spendy, would be more cost effect if you could find a t2. Turboed n/a engines can't handle high boost.

1revvin7 has the right idea if you want to go big boost on it.But if your looking at just a low boost setup and don't want big power you'll need the T2 manifold,IC and piping,Oil lines,T2 injectors and a downpipe for sure.I can't remember what else off the top of my head.Just make sure you run at least 91 octane because one ping and its all over.

it would be just as hard/easy to have a custom manifold made and go for a full t04, as using the stock fc turbo parts
