Default Putting a turbo on a motor with...

My motor (f22b1) has almost 93k on it and I would wondering if anyone would recommend putting a turbo on it? I just had the head gaskets replaces, head was milled and the valves were clean with advanced timing. The car runs strong as hell now. But, I don't know what would be the best thing to do? Can anyone here help me out?

I have nearly 82,000 on my B16A2, with Zero Leakdown and very good compression.

Just tune well, and keep your oil fresh..

Ok, I have a very good compression too so I guess there is some people here that would turbo a high mile engine. Most of my miles are highway miles. I was thinking about the fmax kit. I went to fmax last week and they gave me a walk through of the place and gave me some good info.

HF MOTOR!?!? Did you run it? What times or what #'s did you push out? What cars did you run against and was it fast? Never heard anyone running their HF motors at all.

head was milled
how much was it milled, and was this due to a warped head? does you engine have issues (no social, only problems)

i started boosting at 120k and now at 134k on a d16

On my drive to Cali my radiator broke and my engine overheated. So I had to get a new radiator and fan and have my head gasket replaced. And they had to mill the head and they cleaned the valves. With all that the cars runs better that is ever did. I really want to turbo the f22b1 engine rather than swap it. I can't afford both.

the reason why i asked how much it was milled is because it raised your compression. that is one reason why i runs better. depending on how much they milled your compression might of went up about .5 that should be good for about 10-15hp. (i am guessing)

i would replace your head gasked with a thicker one, and if you can find a used head that has not been milled i would use that. i am sure you might be able to find some one who will swap with you. you can even mill it for them some more and get even more hp out of it. if they are na.
