Thanks

that's more than one silly general question. but to answer your questions:


yes. yes. yes it would be complicated, but possible. it can be done at any time. price depends on what brand/size turbo, brand/size intercooler, piping, tuning, etc

Awesome I definitely will keep everyone posted. I am assuming you are following the thread on it?

Whoah...those are some heavy questions. Though I am not an expert, everyone will agree that with enough money you can do pretty much anything. Depending on the boost levels run it could diminish the life of the engine, but if you kept the boost lower it wouldn't affect it that much. Very complicated. You would still have to sort out tuning. You'd be better off just buying an 350 (which I know wasn't what you asked but it is the reality after all the work it would take).
