Hey i havent seen anything about turbocharging a 2.3-16v in a while so im seeing if anyone knows if there are any other turbos for it other than mosselman, I called him and he says he can still do it but the turbo alone is going to cost 7500 and i would prefer not to spend that kind of money considering i still need an intercooler and install it all. Anyone know of any intercoolers that will work on the 16v too?
Thanks

im sorry i dont post a lot? i dont really need much advise when it comes to my car except for performace upgrades, i searched turbochargers and got almost no results and none for 16v's that were recent, does anyone else know of anything?
There are a handful of turbocharged 2.3-16 in the US, one supercharged, and a few that are "in progress." There are probably as many in Europe, perhaps more.
which is exactly why i want to do it! I wish i could take a look at them! I know i can do it but 7500 is a lot to spend just on the turbo, which is why im going to try and find anyothers before i commit to mosselmans. It's definately worth it though considering after turbo and intercooler i would be pushing just over 300hp!
No offense but you'd be nuts to give up $7500 if its not a complete kit. Why don't you try to SC it instead as it will cost less and be far easier to achieve.

Bwahaha i know a guy putting together a full 2.3-16vlv engine with turbo for less than 10k putting out 750hp. your 300 is sad for 7500. You can make any kit work with the right amount of fabrication. The main thing is fabbing up your exhaust manifold.
