As a direct cause, probably not. As an indirect cause, such as it creating excess oil pressure which, in turn, blows out seals or gaskets, certainly.
Yes much trouble. The motor mounts are not the same as well as the axels. It would be easier for you to convert the 420a engine to a turbo modified. They make turbos kits for the 420a

Answer:I have a 2003 Audi A4 1.8 Turbo around 67,000 miles. It started shooting a lot of white smoke in couple of days. I have read the other answers, and I thought it was burning antifreeze. When I took it to the mechanic shop, the first mechanic said the motor was bad. The second mechanic told me it could be related with turbo. He took the turbo out and yes it was the problem. Turbo was shooting the oil out. Instead of buying an expensive new turbo, I bought the rebuild kit for $40, and rebuilt it. For around $500 the problem is solved. No more smoke , and much better performance. If you have a car with turbo, that might be your problem.
If it hasn't got a turbo there's no place for it to get boost from.
you might be running too much boost off of your turbo especially if youre running a stock turbo
not much just find an srt4 neon an avenger a sebring or a talon with a 420a motor
7 psi is safe to boost on a stock d-series motor
without the headers and the turbo, it is close to 400lbs.
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 depends on the turbo. if you put a small one on your car, it could make it slower then not having one on your car.
The movie Turbo made $75,121,074 in theaters. There is still more money for it to make on DVD sales though.
Adding a turbo to a non turbo engine, on pump gas usually adds 30% non intercooled up to a 50% increase for kits with intercooler. The type of the motor also has a bearing on the output, High compression motors limit the amount of boost the motor is able to run on with pump gas. That is why turbo motors have compression ratio 1-1.5points lower, 8-9.5cr. When designed properly a 2L can make 200hp N/A can make 400hp when boosted.
