rebuilding necessary?

i have a 96 240, 108,5xx miles, KA24DE, is it really necessary to rebuild the motor when i turbo it?
i'm not sure when i'll turbo but it'll be in about a year or 2.

.....

personally, id rebuild it for performance anyway. i would allow you to run higher boost. im doing the same thing. my motor has 116,000. go here

www.importperformanceparts.net

they have rebuild kits for a fair price with good parts. and im getting my turbo kit from

www.turbokits.com

since im already spending the money for the kit i figured i might as well get the rebuild too. well i hope i helped later man.
