Unfortunately, I don't think it's that simple... the turbo(s) much be
closely matched to the engine, or you will run out of flow, overboost, or
have some horrendous turbo lag... I agree that turbos would really make the
engine scream, but there's some real engineering that has to be done... If I
find it again, I remember seeing a site a long time ago that carried some
equations for figuring the turbo variables (wastegate size, nozzle size,
housing size, etc) If I find it again, I'll post some info.
