I built a turbo kit for a honda civic a few years ago, It turned out well and the power increase was almost breath-taking at 10 psi. Im thinking about building either a single turbo, or maybe twin setup on my 300. Seems one of these engines could make some serious power with a little air jammed into them.

Good luck with your setup.

My gal and I both have 1993 900 SAABs. Mine has the TURBO. She drove my car. Now she wants a TURBO too. A bud has a ACM? with turbo. What a hoot! I had my motor out this year for a rebuild, he noticed that the exhaust and intake ports are both on the same side of the motor. He said that would make it e-z to design/build a turbo set-up. My I6 has the Holley 4bbl/Clifford/EFI exhaust set up, and really honks. Wow! Twin turbos! YA MAN. Do it.
