Question 300 turbo on 103 engine ???

Has anybody looked into installing the turbo from a 300 td on a gasoline 103 engine, would it be possible?

what year is your car? I know the older 300 series deisels had a 5 cylinder engine. You can use the turbo, I guess, but not the manifold, and you would have to do quiet a bit of fab work to get the piping. The newer 300td's have a 6 cylinder engine, but I don't know if the manifold would be a direct swamp.

Well Diesel Turbos are sized smaller than gas ones. You will get a lot of low end torque but no mid-top end.
