How hard would it be

[sureshotian1]

How hard would it be to turbo a n/a engine? I always had the want to do this as I like to take the not so easy route. I was turbo off the front header and the exhaust outlet right through the upper fender. Or would it be just as easy to hook it back up to the other side of the exhaust manifold. The car in question is a 02 Bonneville. As of mods just have an exhaust and a highflow cat on it.

its easy as **** with a zzp bolton kit (z3, z7 etc)

if you are referring to making everything yourself then its a pita

Do you know how much the zzp kit is? I've made my on turbo kit for a sc2 saturn but that only has one exhaust outlet to deal with not two. A kit would be nice lol.

The Z3 kit is $2,554.99 Z7 is $2,999.99

Item #: ZZ-Z3TK05-01-0099607-01-0150910-01-01357 for the Z3 kit.

You could save some money and look for a used kit on the forums. Or if you want to be really cheep piece together your own kit with piping from a vendor, a fmhe from frozen boost, and an eBay turbo.

Have plans to do that and swap up to the heavy duty one that comes in the ssei/gtp. Also doing a total motor rebuild and possibly twin turbos. Got a new daily so this is becoming my new project build.
