Well its kinda like putting on a header. I believe you can read the how to for the srt turbo install n get the just of it. Pretty much on your stock motor you can just get the srt turbofold, a rrfpr, n bigger injectors then just run the turbo straight to the throttle body n call it a day.

uhm epic fail? of coarse it wont fit a bottom end, and will not fit the head as a matter of fact. i've learned that it really misses a few bolts even on an older dohc head.
It's not the fall that hurts, it's the sudden stop at the bottom!

I'd suggest reading everything you can and then ask whatever questions you have. Like NCNeon said...its too deep of a subject to just explain right here. Get down the basics first :)
