No turbos came stock for any of the J's (However Ive heard the 2007 Coblats will). Im pretty sure you can use any other turbo from another car, but modification is going to be underway.

Most would say, for the best gains at the cheapest price, go for some NOSage

none that will be even close to a direct bolt up. you're going to have to either get a full turbo kit or piece one together. in any case, read the boost FAQ for more information as to what you'll need to put a turbo on your car.

My car may run 18s, but I can do your taxes in 10 seconds flat.
JBO lube - they would never have enough in stock and we'd never see RodimusPrime again

Go read Maximum Boost by Corkey Bell or Street Turbocharging by Mark Warner, it will answer any and all questions you have for building a turbo system for any car.

The simple answer to that is no. There is no version of the 2.2L OHV engine that had a turbo. So there's no shopping list of parts you can buy to easily put one on your car.

You're going to have to get custom with it if you want to go this route.

well, actually my last car had a 2.2 L with a completely stock turbo....it was a first gen. Probe GT, although i believe some parts will work you will still have to buy a turbo manifold that will bolt up to your car. And, finding a first gen. probe is pretty hard as well.
