Anyone ever hear of a turbo being slapped on to a N/A 230 block?
I know the compression ratio is higher, and there are some injection issues..but as a straightforward simple add-on, do you think it is feasible?


Am i looking at engine meltdown after 2000km. or so?

I read that it is actually desirable, on some forum somewhere..wondering if it rings of any truth or not.

thanks in advance..Josh

another difference is the valves. the turbo head has sodium filled valves. could swap heads with a turbo and maybe be ok...
