N/A to turbo!

Im thinkin about goin turbo with my gxl. i've seen the greddy turbo kit. also i was wondering if its worth finding a decent engine in a wrecked 7 and just takin the turbo parts or takin out the whole engine. or just buy the rebuilt and do the engine swap.

The easiest and best (and probably cheapest) way really is to just buy one that is already turbocharged. It is a ton of work to turbocharge an NA car (look in FAQ for writeups). Engine swapping is also a lot of work, again look in the FAQ. To my knowledge there isn't a good kit sold right now, and even if there is a "kit" it will still require a lot of work.
