Turbo on N/A motor?
I have a S5 turbo and intakes/TB here.. but I was wondering if I could throw them on a S4 N/A block and call it a TII
I know they will mechanically *fit* but are the internals of the N/A short block ok for turbo?
Or am I just better off finding a TII motor

Copied directly from the FAQ:
Can I swap a Turbo engine/Jspec engine/13BT/etc into my Non Turbo?
Yes, check these links:

What Turbo kits can I add onto my non turbo RX-7?
There are no longer kits formally made at the time of this post, however there are companies from time to time that do make available non turbo to Turbo Kits. Because most of these companies stop building the kits, or go out of business in short time, it is impossible to keep active links for them.
Most people that turbo a non turbo make their own kits:
Using the stock TII turbo, exhaust manifold with spacer, NA intakes and NA ECU:

so generally its a better idea just to buy a complete t2 motor with electronics, ie, injectors afm, ecu , boost sensor and such and so forth.
na turbo is fun tho and thats what im running in one of my cars now, but basicly u need everything but the actual t2 block to do it... so cost/time wise its prolly better to get a real t2 motor...
