Possible? yes.

desireable? no.

powerful? no.

direct swap without modification? no.

because i may be able to get a TII but i like N/A..(to be run as n/a)


Maybe it's just the wording of that, but I have no clue what you just said...

i would rather not run a turbo..i have an n/a..it may be shot.. if I can get this TII ..i may want to just run it as an N/a(scenario..sell the extra parts..turbo,etc) ..with my n/a ECU...tryin to say ..strip engine and turn it into n/a.....any foreseesble difficulties or ..say screw it and throw the TII in..(at this point i'm not sure about gettin the harness..)

Just because you have a turbo engine doesnt mean you have to use boost. You can drive all day and never go into boost if you know what you are doing. I would not be swapping parts around like this...just run whatever engine the car has in it. You create extra problems doing swaps and crap. More problems than you would EVER have out of a decent stock turbo setup, if it were gone through by somebody that knows what they are doing.

are you getting just the tII block w/o he manifolds? do you already have the n/a manifolds? you can use the tII block but you have to swap the 4port plates to the 6port if you wanna use the n/a manifolds, tb etc.; or use the tII manifolds, etc and leave it as an open-turbo (i just read a thread about this) but all that requires alot of work. if you want a n/a best to get a n/a engine...less work and cheaper

Run the turbo engine with the stock intake with out the turbo. Than when you have man'd up a little and are used to (or bored) with the NA's lack of power, slap the turbo stuff on. That is how I broke in my turbo engine, I ran it 3K without the turbo. On it's 3K birthday, it got a sudden realization to the true purpose to why I built it.

Just need a few custom block off plates.

As far as power, it did rather well. It did have a microtech. Made enouph power to drift a parking lot on dry asphalt and get a wreckless driving ticket before I even had a turbo in it.

like kevin said, you'll be most reliable to just leave it stock. Swaps mean troubleshooting
