hi all just wondering if poeple can tell me if a turbo setup...manifold,snail,lines etc off a 2.4 2LT/2LTE will bolt straight up to my 2.8 lux???? or if the complete engines cheap enough should i just swap it right over,does the 2.4 bolt in??? thanks

in all honesty i would like a newer 5L with turbo but a bit steap atm

it can be done but the turbo is too small for the 2.4 let alone the 2.8 - it will go hard and make awesome torque but past 2500rpm will be out of breath. use the manifold and plumbing and get a better turbo.

ok thanks,its all an idea at the moment.seeing whats available.

What bigger turbos fit,or do people run then but still nothing to stupid or harmful

My motor has 191k and is still good,pump or injectors will need some sort of work tho i believe
