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.

if they want to go turbo they would have to buy all of the turbo parts anyways.....
a 4agze is a great platform... I have one sitting in the driveway in my 87..... but if they want turbo, then saying that they have to go another route isn't correct..... it would be smart for longevity to use a 4agze block, but some people like me are kinda stupid and have enough cars that it doesn't matter.... I know the C series is weak on a gze but that's what I'm using (even though I have a perfectly good e51 & parts sitting in the garage). If it breaks I'll fix it and/or get into another car....
