Can I take a turbo off a Talon TSI and put it on a non turbo regulartalonengine

[grizzly08]

Hey guys i couldnt find a thread for this question so i figured i would ask. Im thinking about buying just a regular eagle talon 1992 non turbo and i was wondering if i could scrap a used turbocharger off a eagle talon tsi and if it would fit?

If it is a 4g63 N/A engine then you can swap everything to it. The block for the N/A does not have the oiling for the turbo, and I do not think the pistons and rods are the same. The intake cam is also different I believe.

Not too sure though.

So then generally its a bad idea to install a turbo on a non turbo engine considering that the cam/piston/rods are not built for it? idk it just sounds like theres alot of room for error if you know what i mean...

This link should answer most of your questions about n/t w/turbo. It can definitely be done, but I believe most will tell you that you would be time and money ahead to just buy a turbo talon.
