You take the turbo and you slap it on. Can't get much easier then that, can it?

Come on Mr. Non Turbo Moderator....

http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=48231 This involved putting an actual turbo engine into your NT... I believe this is generally a better idea as it gives you a much better starting platform to work with...

This talks more about "slapping" the turbo on your NT engine like Tim suggested.

...and as I already added to the other post, ask around about the idea of just starting with a turbo car to begin with. smile

We've done the math... you'll spend more on the conversion, than you could buy one today.

According to his profile he drives a 2G, not a 1G. So there is a little more to it than just "slapping it on".

Either way this has been discussed many times before. Bill, please search around, visit <A HREF="http://2gnt.dsm.org">2gnt.dsm.org</A> and ask more specific questions if you're still not sure.
