Any particular reason you're looking to axe the 2650 and go turbo?

Unless you have a lot of cash to burn, IMHO don't do it :-)

If you want a monster turbo car, you should start with a turbo car like a GT-R, Porsche or less pricey an Evo 8/9. Or maybe a non-turbo car that's proven to handle BIG power turbos like a Viper. I don't recommend converting a high HP SC car to turbo, it will overheat like a MF if you ever track it.

If I go back to modified turbo cars, I'd get a 997 turbo manual, add bigger turbos, KWs and E85 and remove as much weight as possible while still keeping it streetable and comfortable. A Porsche turbo track car is one of my top 5 dream cars.

If you do have money to burn, maybe a twin turbo Viper. Lots of proven parts for that and no super expensive DCT or AT to break/repair.
