The question would of eventually come up. Is it possible to run the 4cyl Probes with a Turbo or SuperCharger? I know of the ATS Turbo company, but have heard that there turbos are not of real high quality. Unorthodx Racing makes a SuperCharger for the GT so why can't we make one for the SE?! I understand the diffrences between the two but almost any car can have either a Turbo or SuperCharger bolted on. Anyone have any idea? Chris

First of all any combustion engine is capable of turbocharging or supercharging. I would have to say that the 2.0L Probe would be an easy custom install for reasons mention earlier, that there is ample room in the engine bay of our cars. I know of one gentleman, by the name of Robin, who lives in Florida. He is currently running a Turbo/NOS 2.0L Probe running mid 12's. He is battling with drive axle components now as they are breaking on him. Anyway, South Florida Performance (305-233-8520) is the shop that did his custom install. I have talked with the shop myself, and they are more than willing to do another. They will charge you about $4k, but this includes the fuel system upgrades, electrical system upgrades as well as all the turbo assessories, plus you can choose the components you would perfer. Or if you are the do-it-yourselfer, like myself, you can pick up the turbo headers from them for $400. I have talked for a few hours with Geoff Knight. I will say he is a very nice guy, who loves his work, and his very competent with turbos. The only downfall I have heard about Geoff's work is that he is kind of sloppy. In other words the asthetics of his "goods" is rather low, which really bugs me, as I look for perfection, often to the point that I am considered anal. But if you are looking for someone who to do the kit for you he would certainly be a option. You would just have to "clean" everything up along the way, to make it look good. Please note that the remarks on his work was purely gathered from comments of others who have seen his work. I have been spending a little time researching a turbo setup on our cars, as that is my final goal once I upgrade my fuel and electrical systems for a NOS setup, as this will reduce that costs of installing the turbo, as there will already be ample fuel. I would love to see some more force feed 2.0L Probes. Bryan Pendleton >

I don't have the answer to that question. All I know is that he is running the large turbo at 12psi of boost, and launches with a shot of NOS to compensate for turbo lag. He also claims that traction has become the biggest issue now. Bryan Pendleton >
