"not too crazy"

+85% increase in power from factory block



Edit: serious advice, budget to buy a replacement motor, if it holds then good, minor repairs fall within budget, if not oh well toss replacement motor in and decide if you go back to NA or keep doing a turbo in the process. I say this regardless of your engine mileage and maintenance although replacing coil packs to me means you beat on it pretty hard there's literally no data to say whether these things are solid up to 100k, 150k, 200k, or 300k of abuse.

If you can't afford to slap a turbo on AND replace a motor, then you can't afford to slap a turbo on imho
