ive got a 1994 mk5 escort rs2000, and i was wondering could i fit a turbo to it?, and what parts i would need to buy? whats the maxinum bhp can i get out of the turbo? cheers.

you could but its not a great idea, for a start its 13 years old. you need the turbo and induction system an intercooler, exhaust system management ecu and associated wiring. if you want to run reasonable boost you need to lower the CR, this means new pistons. as for HP it depends how long you want the engine to stay in one piece, I would think an increase of 33% would be enough

what about a superchip? its about 160 bhp and i want it near the 200 mark
