i reckon it might end up being to much effing around etc...
best bet is to find a smashed fwd 4age for couple hunge tops

then u have more of teh grand left over for handling goodies :)

I have never thought about this before now, but what if you put 4AGZE forged pistons in, with the supercharger etc....
The only reason i would do this is to be unique! Otherwise, i wouldn't bother.......

Not worth the effort. If you want 4agze stuff buy the ZE. I thought about doing the whole 4ac turbo but after you realise that u will need a new manifold made up, need to get a turbo carby by either sourcing one from a turbo sigma or adapting ur own(noting it wont flow that well and will have to be rejetted).

I phoned up about getting a turbo carby made up, the guy quoted me $700....thats almost a damn good turbo if not a 2nd hand one.
You will also need to buy a turbo which has the capabilities of having fuel pushed through depending which setup, suck through or blow by, cant remember. If you do just use a turbo that doesnt have those seals in I would recommend a cheap one that you wouldn't care about and it would either have to be resealed fairly regularly.You will need a fuel regulator and a larger fuel pump basically on whatever engine you want...if your after power.

After adding all those prices up, you are best of saving a few more pennies and buying either a 4age if you want a bit more power, the 4agze and covert to turbo or as I did buy a 4agte already done.

I remember from the magazine article of David's 4ac-t (AJPS) that it had 90kw something...which is basically the same power of a 4age. The 4age would be a far better option if you want atleast the same power if not more as you can modify that later and that would be alot more reliable considering he had boost at 20psi to achieve that figure. You can still add a turbo onto the std 4age but you can figure out that 6-7psi tops would be its potential until stronger internals are needed. Then the idea of 4agze internals would be applicable.

That should do for now...the rest is up to you
