A 16G turbocharger, commonly used in various performance applications, typically can produce boost levels ranging from 15 to 25 psi, depending on the specific model and engine setup. Factors such as engine tuning, supporting modifications, and intercooling efficiency can influence the maximum boost achievable. It's essential to ensure that the engine can handle the increased pressure to avoid potential damage. Proper tuning and monitoring are crucial for optimal performance and reliability.
I guess you could, but what would it do. A wastegate controls the amount of boost and with no turbo there is no boost to control.

any internal combustion engine can use a turbo or SC, the question is how much $$ and how long will motor last with the added stress. Which will be determined also by how much boost you choose to push.
It really depends on how much power you want(boost level and lbs/min of air needed) and what the motor can handle. The most extreme diesels(sled pull trucks) run compound turbos (the compressed air out of 1 turbo going into the intake of the 2nd/3rd turbo) with upwards of 100+psi of boost.
the best way to go would be a twin turbo swap. the na motor has high compression so even if you figure out the hardships and manufacturing of a turbo kit for the na, you would only be able to run about 4-5 psi of boost which when balanced out with time and money. its not practical.
yes you can! the other poster is an idiot! if you can find a turbo small enough for that engine, you can do it, but as far as i know there aren't any turbos out there that are that small. and unless you have too much boost you won't blow it up. good luck!
exhaust leak. gaskets around the manifold. probly has a misfire at idle to i bet?

the turbo has nothing to do with blowing the motor it's the amount of boost you run the will blow it the bigger the turbo the longer it will take spool.
Yes, you can put a turbo on almost any vehicle. Question is: How much is it worth to you? It will cost plenty.
Yes.. turbo systems are universal unless your car electric and doesn't have an intake or exhaust system.. however do your research before bolting on turbo system on a gs because if you have the 95 - 99 models the engine is not the best engine to boost.. it is very weak..
