Im gessing its diesel? if your going to go to the effert of turboing it, its not hard to get a large incress in power. Get a good hi flow manifold, 3" exhaust, wind up diesel pump and set boost around 12psi and an intercooler and you will be very impresed. All depends on how many kms its done and how much $ you wont to spend. A mate of mine was going to turbo his petrol tb42 but went with the supercharger option, much easer he said. Goes bloody well.
