turbo swap question?? and pics!!

Hi,

I have a perfectly straight base model fc from california. The only problem is the car is obviously n/a and is not a gxl either. I have upgraded the suspention and wheels already plus strut tower bars all the way around. My question is, is it possible to do a turbo swap even though we are dealing with a four lug car, as if that even matters, but my most concern is the drive train components. Also other than motor, trans, ecu, and harness what else would i need to swap the car or just dont even bother??? Pictures of swap would deff be appreciated.

4 lug car and turbos?
you can turbo a car with 2 lugs...turbos dont care how many lugs ya got bro...
drivetrain should hold up...just make sure you in gear before killing it!
a front clip is a good idea...will have all you need. for a complete swap engine and all...
but if you go kit like u seem to be writing, a fuel pump. intercooler plumbing for intercooler. oil lines water lines..etc...

hint front clip makes life uber easy...and saves a ton...on little things you dont get buying pieces...
good luck with your build.
