Hey i have a 1998 eagle talon esi FWD 2.0L I was talkin to ma friends and they told me if i wanted to convert ma car to a Turbo i might as well change the whole engine instead of spending ma money on a turbo kit. what do u guys think and if this is correct what kind of engine should i swap it with. sry im a newbie LOL
 
the cost of the whole engine and turbo is not worth it
most people will tell you to sell your car and buy a turbo car

p.s. the whole engine will need a ton of custom work
i know of one person that did it and he spent 8000 dollars
you can get the whole car for less
 
Tell your friends they are dumb first off.

Then when you're done..

You can turbo your car, You'll need alot of supporting mods to have it done properly, And last long.

You can just buy a turbo car.. (I do not want to hear the non-turbo people come in this thread saying blah blah blah).

You can put a 4g63t in your car, But why? It will be just like a tsi fwd then.. So you're better off just buying a tsi in the first place. You would also hafto do a lot of custom fabricating.
 
4th... Use the title for what it is meant for.... not "??????"

Try using "I want to turbo my car, but I don't want to use the search button" :laugh:
 
Welcome to DSMtuners.

Here are a few of our rules that you may not be familiar with:

Use proper forum etiquette:

Use good grammar, punctuation and spelling in your posts. No slang and/or abbreviated words.

Use descriptive thread titles. If it's not descriptive, many will not click on it. If you need help with fuel tuning, put "fuel tuning" in the thread title, not some generic line like "help me please".


I'm sure your next effort will be more successful.
