Turbo Upgrade!!!!

Just plug the water lines and wait for the turbo to spooooooool. Are there
any other mods done to the car to necessitate a larger turbo? Header, EFI,
large exhaust, larger intercooler/intake plumbing, silly amounts of boost?
Or are those in the works, post turbo install? If non of the above is in
the present or future I don't think you'll find the K27 any sort of
upgrade at all, instead you'll may find yourself measuring turbo lag on
your calendar.

But to answer your question without my guesstimating your motives for the
turbo, just plug the water lines however you see fit. A simple crush
washered bolt at the water neck behind the hydraulic pump, and a plugged
hose clamped onto the nipple in the drain freeze plug should be
sufficient.

Take care and let us know how it turns out!
