Alright mate, welcome to the forum! Yes you can bolt on a turbo...but I don't know what else will need to be done...but one of the other guys will know!

Have you got any other plans for the calibra?

You'll need to lower the compression ratio which means different rods and or pistons. Different inlet and exhaust manifolds. Different exhaust system. Different ECU. As you can see, it's a big old job.

Might be easier to buy a whole car, or at least engine.

yeah, the CalibraTurbo is a veryfast car, plus it chip's well too. you can pick one up for as little as £1500 which would save you a lot of hard work.

Courtney I think was a company that specialised with Vauxhall turbos.

If you're going to buy a fast car do you really want what is really just a rebodied Cavalier?
