    Are you talking about the early RA's? TD05 turbo? Why would you want to try and fit one?

    It would prob be too much hassle to fit, id sell it on ebay if you got it for free and put it towards a t25r

    im not sure the gains would be worth it if any at all.

    The td05 is for a 2.0 making 240bhp you would be better of with the T25

    my mate has a td05 on his izuzu powered kadett thats a 2.0 engine but its still laggy as fcuk so on the gt engine mate i can imagine it would be even worse so i should say yes you could probably get it to fit but there is no point as you would have to rag the tits off the car to go anywhere fast

    The size of the turbo reflects on the engine size. For example, a 5l turbocharged engine would have a massive turbo. Putting that on a 1.4l would be stupid, it probably wouldnt have the gasses to spool. That is similar to what you are suggesting here. It probably wouldnt spool up until very late in the rev range.
    Punto Gt no more!
