Only kit available for a twin turbo is from Thomas Knight turbos (http://www.knightturbos.com). I have no experience with him but there are a few people on this board and probetalk that would not recommend him.<P>By the way, please search prior to posting. You aren't the only one that's ever asked this.

also, that kit is for the v6. there's no kit for the I4. as far as a twin turbo engine to put in your car...i don't know of any w/o a lot of custom work needed.

Dood, you don't need to search first. You are new here, and prolly didn't even see the search link yet. You may want to use the search function for more information but don't worry about searching first. If they don't like your question they don't have to read it. Welcome to the board.

with the amount of money it would take to drop in ANY twin turbo motor into the I-4, your best bet would be looking into the B6T or BPT motors. it's only a single turbo, but a lot less expensive and these motors have a lot of potential.

I'm sure that 99% of anything you want to know has been covered by one or another post on this board. You may ignore it, but you aren't the only one that knows anything about our cars. I'm sure that one person or another WILL answer their questions.
