to boost or not to boost...

I have a 86 NA. Considering turbo. It has 140k, but it has been rebuilt about 20k ago. Is this a good idea, or should I go a different route. If you have any sites or posts on this topic, I would appreciate if you posted it for me.

No turbo kit for N/A FC.. Buy a turbo II or swap in a turbo enegine... few people have put a turbo into a N/A enegine... Search for Arroncake and his N/A turbo project. Also search for other things before you post.
