    yes. its possible to turbocharge anything for the right price. well seeing as the motor is high compression probably not alot of boost. probably no more than 6-8lbs. but with the right set up and tuning you can make quite alot of power out of 6-8 psi. IMO your killing the spirit of the car with a turbo but to each his own. you might want to talk with some of the shops around your area, they would beable to tell you alot more than i can as far as pricing and capabilities of the motor. ive seen some impressive K20 turboed motors b4. especially the south florida turbo cars, they r some mean ass K20's

    suppose thats one way to lookat it, but its not a Type R, just the motor.. depends where your enthusiasm is for the car/engine... Personaly i love my Ep3, so putting in a turbo Type R motor would just make the car that much more amazing, ofcourse its more realstic to get the A2 especialy if you want to rebuild the motor anyays, i know theres not much difference between the A2 and A as their is between the A/A2 and the A3

    Mine really dosn't leave the garage. People across the street think it is a tool bench.

    the cams and intake manifold in the motor are good with boost, but the higher compression isnt....
