   Hey
   
   Do you think it would be possible to run turbo conversion kit suitable for the XU9 engine.. more specifically the XU9J4 (MI:16) engine on the TU5 VTS engine?
   
   With obviously the correct manifold.
   
   Cheers

   You can modify any to fit.
   
   Just a quicky, where are you thinking of getting the xu9 turbo kit from??

   The manifold will be nest to useless as will a lot of the other pipe work. The turbo is likely to be on the big side or way to big as well. Any direct fit management will not work but a generic setup should be usable to some extent.
