    kinda curious why you have a name "4agze" and asking about making a turbo 20V... lol

    i would advise against it..... if you want boost, stick with a 4agze

    Isn't the silvertop a high-compression engine? I think I am wrong but 11:1? Yeah you want to keep boost away from anything 10:1+!!!

    if you got the money to turbo it then yeah do it. Just make sure you get low comp pistons for it. As far as anything else, i think the silvertop can handle at least 5-7psi safe. The blacktop is the one with weaker internals.
