dieselvw.com has turbo conversions for NA engines based on TDI parts.  Has anyone tried it out yet?  Cost is $450.

I'd love to do something like this, even to normalize the altitude in CO.

I agree lets try and be civil concerning this item and stick to facts not opinions. MattRabbit you've unwittingly posted a subject concerning one of the most controversial part sellers and one of the most controversial mods, I would be surprised if anyone on this forum has purchase that particular item.

Ya know what?  Go for it!!!

I don't think you will have a problem.

it will run like an ECO Diesel unless you get a Turbo pump for it.
