N/a

Is it just me or does N/A mean N/A?
How can you have a N/A turbo?

It just baffles me, N/A means no turbo or no supercharger

On this forum, N/A turbo is referring to an N/A engine (6 port, high compression) that someone has turbocharged.

NA turbo has been used recently because of people(like me) have been putting turbos on the NA cars. It is easier to say NA turbo than I have a Turbo on my original NA car in a question or comment pertaining to that subjest.

So in other words yes it was a vaild question.

Are there any advantages or disadvantages to running a turbo on a 6-port N/A engine as apposed to a 4-port turbo engine? What about the higher compression?
