What are peoples opinions on slapping a turbo kit on an original na engine and running it at stock boost levels? 

Do you have to get all the special coolant hoses and the oil cooler from a turbo engine as well?

For whatever reason all I come across locally is na engines that are bare for an ok price and now I'm looking to doing something like this because I have never driven one without a turbo and figure it would be painfull without one :)

I don't race my car around but I want to be able to get on it when needed as well, using for commuting and getting good mileage.

If it doesn't pose an issue I'm going to be in the market for parts to convert atleast 1 vehicle over.

Sorry, just finalizing the sale for a manifold and rebuild-able turbo from Trev0r.  Guess that other parson is gonna be the next lucky one.  ;)

yes, with the correct manifolds and oil lines..

you need a bigger injection pump before you worry about increasing your air..
