The turbododge guys are great resources for making your own kits. Even though fuel managment will be different the basic theory and parts you need will be there.

I would start searching for a turbo that will work for you 5-6psi range (learn to read turbo maps, or find someone to help you do it)

After that find a way to tune your car depending on your setup (dont know what there is for your market)

After you have those basic things put togething, take it to a shop and have everything made up for you (at this time find an intercooler and possibly a mass produced turbo manifold)

It is a very complicated mod, but i think if you take it one step at a time and do your research you will be happy with your end results.

thats what im trying to do. there are some turbo kits for it, but i don’t want to push my engines limits. i just want to get around the 220whp area, and ill be happy with that. im going to start researching some more…
