plymouth laser rs non turbo 1994, 1991 plymouth laser rs turbo ?

[laserduh]

I purchased a 1994 Plymouth Laser RS yesterday, flew to Philli, and thought, as it was advertised as a turbo, that it was so equiped ... But on the ferry across Lake Champlain via Burlington to Montpelier Vt. I realized that it was not after reading Owners Manual ... I saw that it should have had a Booster guage, and it didn't so...
I own a 1991 Plmouth laser rs Turbo also. My question is, should anyone know .... Can I have the Turbo taken off the 91 and installed on the 94 engine? they are both 2.0 l4 engins according to their manuals.
I'ld love to have the performance of the turbo on the newer Laser if possible... Hope someone can let me know for sure... Thanks, You can write E to me at Pharosdrumr @aol.com , Thanks, Gary

No it won't work. The N/A one has higher compression than the factory turbo one. Not sure whether or not it will fit, but it won't work anyway. The internals of the N/A one are much weaker also.

Won't fit.

Why not? It is the same car minus the turbo, intercooler, and piping.

It can be done, but it will take time and money. You will have to buy some lower compression pistons and get forged internals. You will have to replace the entire exhaust. You will have to pay a lot of money for someone to install the turbo. You will also need all the wiring, pipes, tubing, oil lines, intercooler, and the ECU will need to be fixed.

I would work on the 91 and hop it up instead.

It would be easier just to swap the entire engine instead of building the other one up.

besides the injectors, rods, rings, exhaust, intake manifold, exhaust manifold, and a lot more, there are almost the same. here is what you would need for a conversion (please add to if i forgot anything)

-throttle body
-throttle body elbow
-tap a hose barb into the intake manifold (for BOV line)
-uic hose
-lower ic hose
-stock sidemount ic
-turbo intake cam (at or mt depending on your tranny, exhaust cams are the same)
-stock 1g exhaust manifold
-stock 1g downpipe
-14b turbo
-stock 1g o2 snesor housing
-turbo ecu + wiring harness (the ecu plugs for the turbo ecu and several connectors for the mas, fpr solenoid, knock sensor and injector resistor pack)
-450cc stock turbo injectors
-turbo fuel pump
-turbo mas
-upgraded clutch if you have mt (act 2100 at least)
-turbo fwd oil pan
-knock sensor
-injector resistor pack
-all lines to connect turbo to water source off the head
-all oil lines for the turbo
-new head gasket
-timing belt change
-rods, pistons & rings from a 6 or 7 bolt engine (depending what year your car is)
-block rework & head rework
-fuel pressure solenoid
-knock sensor
-new o2 sensor
-turbo mas

if you want to get technical, he can turbo on all stock ineards, but....
he can only run at the most 9lbs of boost, hell, it is the 4G63 so hey, why not lol
