... I was thinking about the turbo bolt-on route as well.  I'm thinking 
that you'd end up having to swap both manifolds and you'd need the wastegate
and a lot more stuff.  I'm kinda new to the thinking about NA upgrades, 
but it sure seems like finding a place to bolt on a G-lader and modify 
the intake plumbing would be much more simple.  Can anyone out there 
report on what is really involved with putting a super-charger onto 
a NA engine ... or even attaching a low max boost turbo to a higher
compression engine?
