can you blow a motor with a turbo

I don't turbo mine for the reasons I mentioned earlier. The ONLY reason to turbo is to get more power.

When you get that, you will use it. Then, you will blow it up.

you are discouraging a potentially awesome build. Who knows, this guy could have a bunch of money and might decide to build the motor to handle it.

When you turboing a non turbo engine there are many things to look at. Basically you will want to rebuild it stronger. I'll let you read up on that because it is too long to explain and their are pleanty of good write ups on how to build an na to handle a turbo.

So if you Re-Read my first post, you will see the words "with just adding a turbo to a non-turbo engine". Most people with "enough" money to spend on there car will get a turbo block to build.

And 95% of the people that have an N/A MKIII don't have lots of money to throw at it. Do you? And if so, let us know what your dyno results are after you've spent, say $8 k on that motor.
