Thats a bit harsh.

Perhaps you should use the search feature though, there are a lot of threads regarding turbocharging an FTO on this site.

I wasnt being rude

Anyways Vai, to answer your question...

1. Mitsubishi came out with a 6A12 non mivec turbo engine in the Galant. From what i have heard is that it uses different engine mounts so its not a straight bolt on job.

2. If you have a MIVEC or non MIVEC 6A12 you can get a custom turbo kit done up for your engine. Either way it all costs money haha.
Also there are various parts when going custom.
Turbos - HKS, Garrett, Blitz, there are various types and sizes.

Hope that helps a little

We have a section of our forum for discussing turbos here: http://www.ftoaustralia.com/modules.php ... forum&f=22

How many FTOs are in Russia?

Best bet, if you are transplanting an engine, is the 6A13TT from the later VR4/Legnum. The earlier 6A12TT is round the wrong way (gearbox on drivers side) and would be a mongrel to even consider fitting to an FTO. That said though, the turbo's/manifolds from either engine could fit and would be a cheap upgrade as they are normally sold for sweet FA if someone is upgrading. I will keep you guys posted, I may have a pair of TD03's (if that's what they are) and manifolds for sale soon if my big single plan goes ahead...

A fellow in Msport got a 12 second quarter out of his whale shaped VR4, so the 6A12 turbo's do appear to have some scope...
