'93 850 GLT N/A Turbo-able? 850 1993

posted by  someone claiming to be SeanD on  Mon Aug 19 07:25 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I recently bought a '93 850 GLT sedan. It's got 97k on the clock and appears to be in very good shape. I would have really preferred to get a turbo to begin with, but couldn't find one in the area. Does anyone have any thoughts/advice as to converting a N/A engine to a turbo? Should I find a c70 or 850 turbo at a salvage yard and pull off the turbo, or should I look for a non-volvo turbo? Also, what exactly is it going to take to install it? Obviously some ductwork, an oil send and return, but will I have to do a new exhaust and/or ECU? I appreciate any advice anyone has.
