With that many miles on the motor, i personaly would rather spend the money elsewhere... For the price of a turbo kit, you can find a decent B series engine swap which will not only give you more power than the D series motor, but its a better platform for future modification...

well, if your getting the kit for next to nothing, why not... Just keep the boost low to keep the wear on the motor to a minimum...

Yep, good ole Lompoc, small world, even smaller town... hahaha...
