Not really. If you want boost, get a supercharger for $5k new ($3500 used?).

There have been some half a$$ed attempts at putting a turbo on a 2.8 but its really not the way to go. Since there isn't room up front, they do a remote mount (outside the engine bay) which pretty much kills the turbo effect since its too far away from the engine.

Supercharger or dump your 2.8 and buy a 1.8T. Those are your best options.

Wow, that was an easy sell.

Ok this is what else you need, a guy to run with. Buy me an 01 1.8TQM Sportblack on black and I will mod and go driving with you. I will PM you my address so you know where to drop the car off. Thanks

Haha, I'll take his place for the time being. Don't get me wrong the 1.8t is a great car and as we all know has much more room to mod, but there is just something about a supercharged 2.8 that gets my blood flowing. Plus no waiting for the thing to spool. I'll leave the rest to ateurv8...

yes true but once the bt starts to spool your day is over. so you have the lead for part of 1st gear.
