| I have one at the moment G200 twin cam efi, Was a standard engine for 5 yrs, then decided to turbo it go's well. You have to build it strong like any normal engine that is going turbo. Haven't seen or heard of component failures as such apart from pistons with holes, due to detonation. |

And what was the cost?
