thanks everyone for the responses. i dont know if ive got the flow for a turbo kit. i just basically wanted to know if this engine was worth anything or if i should just not bother. if theres one thing i learned in my jeepin days is that you should do it right the first time. i guess this engine wouldnt put me at an immediate disadvantage. my plan right now is to leave it stock for a little while and see how i like it. maybe i'll catch the bug later on. for my wallet's sake, i hope not, but im sure it'll happen
