Yep of course it is ... would you want to, well thats another story.

[InSanE]

id like to do it, but im scared it will go backwards and im worried about putting a turbo on the 2L because i hear they are known for blowing up with a turbz on the side

[zookdave]

sum sort of gearing would help. and extra transfer case or diff gears?
i dont no wat the best set up is maybe someone with experience can comment? after that u could do basic performance mods, exhaust, air intake, fuel etc

i ran 33's for ages on mine, it went well. the 2L can even turn 37's (but not that well). but for ur question yeah it would work, as i said my old lux went pretty well and it had a 2L

i just picked up a 2nd hand safari kit for the lux for a bargain price it came with everything from custom air intake to 3" dump pipe all lines and fittings so i will chuck it on and see if the old 2L goes bang, im sick of struggling to do 100km an hour on slight hills, and it will help push some 33's

sounds good. do you know when its going on yet? so you can tell us how it goes

I have an 88 lux. 2.4 diesel with a turbo. I now run 32's and it goes fine. I just put a boost gauge on it and I find that I aint working the turbo much at all. Up hills I do, but I just take it easy. My engine has 300k on the clock and turbo has been on there for 50k. Still goes great. Dont be shy mate, get amongst it !

p.s. my wifes sister just rang.. wouldn't mind tappin that.

sounds good mate, i will be fitting the kit hopefully in the next few weeks its 2nd hand so im going to put a new seal kit through the turbo and get it balanced then put it all together, i will take heaps of photo's and start a thread on it
