well turbos cause problems, and a motor with that kind of miles i wouldent do much to.. take the money that you was gonna use on a turbo and get you a new jdm h22 and you should still have some cash left over to do something to that motor...

turbos don't cause errors. user abuse and horrible installation does.

h22a's are known for ringland weakness. and most experience blow-by with that many miles on them. your compression is proabably somewhat low at this point which i can only assume.

unless you have the money to plan a build i wouldn't go the turbo route.

Well, I am planning on building the engine, but should i just concentrate more on the build first and then the turbo? Please Help me out, Thanks.
