<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (tibby01)</div><div class='quotemain'>seriously, i dont think it would be really hard. its just that it would...

1. be IN NO WAY streetable.
2. cost much more money than a turbo.
3. be much more labor.
4. more than likely be very unreliable.</div>

Actually turbo's can be pretty unreliable.But it's like anything,it depends on the quality of the parts and instal.

and how you drive...

The only problems I see with the cams.. you will probably get a lumpy/uneven idle and you might not be able to pass emissions testing. You will also get a "soft" lowend and a RUSH of power as you hit the rev limiter

you wont get to 200hp with 11.5 CR pistons. it would be much more labor because you dont have to tear the engine down to install turbo parts. 200hp can be reached with a turbo without any internal work.

it would not be streetable because you would probably stall all the time, your idle would have to be horrificly high, and the money for the racing gas that it would need would be pointless.

unreliable because thats what happens when your trying to squeeze every single drop of power out of a small engine, instead of just making the engine seem like a bigger engine via FI.
