Can it be done and will it need a remap? What kind of cost am I looking at?
so yes , yes and lots
Cost you a lot:

That's just for the pistons.
Couple of grand for a decent supercharger too plus all the bits.
500 to a 1000 for a decent exhaust to get the extra air back out.
new intake system maybe?
then the remap, a grand say for a proper bespoke mapping.
Also you will definitely need a new clutch, the standard ST220 one which can be a weak point in an otherwise superb car wouldn't be able to handle the torque. 1500 for a good quality uprated one.
6 or 7 grand really I reckon.
He asked about fitting a turbo rather than a s/c
I know it's late to reply, but it can be done and still no one has done it yet, I'm not a mechanic but I'm determined to do it myself, a project is starting next month with a 06 ST220 which will be in stages over a few winters
Problem is the compression ratio, a standard 220 runs about 12:1 which in no way able to put forced induction into, I'm afraid it's a total rebuild with all new internals.Wrench kid,
I had a Mondy ST220 but it broke Buying a new one soon though however, would love to keep up to date with your project on your ST, are you gonna be posting updates? Would be interested to see if I could turbo charge mine once I've got it!
