If you get that "Extend port" job, would you NEED to install a standalone or something to tune it with, or will the walbro 255 pump and the rest of the TII equipment be enough for it?

They mean it's a bad idea to turbocharge a N/A engine.

That, and it is an even worse idea for this individual to do it, especially since a turbocharged car is available.

I'm almost done turboing my my NA. It is not as hard as it seems.
Spent a day taking the engine out and getting all the turbo stuff on it.
Tomorrow I will be installing it. I will let cha know how it goes.
