I wouldn't recommend running any forced induction without at least a piggy back computer or a stand alone.....

blocking the egr off does absolutely nothing for performance -- the egr is closed at WOT, so it doesn't engage when racing whatsoever....

however removing the egr does clean up a LOT of vacuum lines and mess around the trans.
I didn't mean that it couldn't handle it, i meant that it would be easier and/or cheaper just to get a supercharged engine, or even a 20v.

What i meant was it simply may not be worth it. Once you fabricate or buy a turbo manifold, get the turbo, get an engine management system, and possibly an intercooler you'll have spent so much time/money on it that you could have done a swap.

Although it might be pretty cool to have a 4agte, simply because of the fact that it's a rare breed.
