can you put a turbo on a N/A
 
I currently have a 1987 toyota supra with a 7m-ge, my question is could i buy a ct26 turbo along with a turbo header and whatever else i need and bolt it on or does it not work that way?

yes you can. First thing you need to do is search.

That link is basically telling me how to put a whole new motor in, but i dont want to do that , i just want to put a turbo on my n/a motor. So is it possible to do with an n/a motor

Not without a LOT of work. The systems are very different.
Wiring harnes, turbo, ecu, maf, injectors intake, etc.
Best bet is to find a turbo car that looks like crap, and take everything from it to put into your nice n/a.

Listen to mrnickleye--it will save you a LOT of time and $$$$$!

The turbos have oil squirters to keep the piston tops cooler, and they lowered the CR for the boost. Can you think of WHY Toyota did that?

I also see too many things different on the turbo block compared to the N/A. I notice a water feed outlet from the block just back from the oil filter. There is also the return line from the turbo to the oil pan. The engine squiters inside the block are enough to want you to just get a turbo engine, but there are all sorts of sensors that are extra on the turbo.

I was thinking of doing the swap too, but I found a turbo supra and bought that instead. That was cheaper and much easier to do. Anything can be done of course with determination, money and time but you really have to know what all to do and have the parts to do it with.

Good luck with it though.
