-Is there any way I can turbocharge my 1.6l SOHC engine up to 175-200hp?<P>-How much psi will I need?<P>-What will I need to change to be able to handdle all that power (pistons, clutch, etc)<P>-How much (aprox) all this would cost?

200hp is a big boost, there's nothing else that would be required???

Can you GET a turbo for a SOHC 4 banger? I have one to and I cant find a turbo for SOHC anywhere... I dont know exactly where to look but I checked search engines and stuff. Found them for DOHC but not Single

Possibly out of an older impreza, I know their sohc and not possitive but i think they're turbo'd, dunno about compatibility or anything but its an idea.

I've heard the only way to put a turbo on the sohc is by buying a custom setup from boosthead.com. But the best way to have a turbocharged engine on our mx-3s is supposed to be by getting a engine swap to a B6T or BPT.I have decided to go with the B6T engine from corksport.com can't wait to get it.
