yep you can turbo the c20xe,but its cheaper to fit a c20let

you'll need to lower the compression with a thicker head gasket or dished pistons,u'll need other management,cams,the turbo,manifold,the cost would be around 2000k minimum,might aswell buy a let and tune that

as he says compression will ruin your modded engine (guessing your talking induction/exhaust mods and chip)

standard xe inlet cam is very good in an let though.....

easier and cheaper in long run to fit let though. theyll both blow up but let will be more reliable.....
