A low boost setup should be safe for most engines, although some vehicles may require strengthening of engine components (rods & pistons being a common point of failure). A turbo forces more air into the engine, and this air will require extra fuel - therefore, an upgraded fuel pump and injectors may also be required, or the engine may lean out and suffer from detonation. The increased torque produced from the boosted engine may also wreak havoc with the clutch and gears. If high boost operation is desired, these components should be upgraded as well.

Regardless of the kit, additional stresses will be placed upon the engine so factory level reliability (if that exists for the particular vehicle) can no longer be guaranteed. Vehicles turbocharged from the factory tend to respond better to aftermarket kits better than normally aspirated vehicles.

Can you install a turbo kit in a fs-ze engine?

As said earlier you can turbo any engine, but for the FSZE engine... it is already high compression engine so adding a turbo to it wouldn't make much sense without swapping out the pistons for low compression pistons. e


What is the fastest turbo kit?

There really is no "fastest" turbo kit. A turbocharger is basically a compressor that forces more air into the engine so that more fuel can be burnt in each stroke cycle. Not any turbo works with a particular type of engine. Particular engines will only work with certain turbocharger kits. So really, the question should be "which turbo/engine combination is the most powerful?" Some turbos can be too big for an engine so to get it (the turbo fans) spinning, the exhaust pressure might be too high for the engine to produce, hence the turbo will not actually boost the engine. A turbo that is too small will start spinning but the air it forces into the engine may not be enough to get the boost that is expected when the turbo "kicks in". Turbochargers should kick in around the start of an engine's power band (the rpm range at where the engine is at it's most powerful).


Can you add turbo to any engine?

You can add turbo to any engine if you are willing to upgrade the engine properly. Turbo kits are generally rather expensive. Although they typically include everything needed to install the turbo itself, it isn't an easy task. Welding could be required. Drilling into the oil pan could be required. It is recommended to have a turbo kit installed by a professional.


Is it a good idea to put a turbo on a 1998 dodge neon with 222 k miles on the engine?

To spend that money on a turbo kit on a high mileage engine wouldn't be cost effective/recommended. You should rebuild it and install turbo pistons, forged rods and then you could take advantage of the turbo.


Is there a kit to make your regular engine a turbo engine?

Yes, such kits do exist but there is alot to consider. There are several things you have to know about your engine before you buy a turbo. Check and see what engine size and model your car has, and then look up to see if turbo kits exist in that engine size. If you install yourself, make sure you don't overboost your engine and blow it.
