i was wondering if it would be a good idea to put a stock GST turbo into my 98 RS.

As in put it in the back seat and look at it lovingly in the rear view mirror?

LOL. You can't just bolt on that turbo onto our cars because the GST motor is totally different. I have seen people go through the trouble of putting the stock GST turbos on our cars but that turbo is so small it's not really worth it. Just get yourself a turbo kit newb.

EDIT:
This horse was already beaten to death in 2002. Afer seeing how irritating this question was over four years ago, it's hard to believe that it's still asked.

Am I the only one that thinks any form of this question posted should be locked immediately, like the same one that was asked yesterday and is only halfway down the first page?

Okay. Let's all calm down a bit, shall we?

PhiLing, we really aren't picking on you, personally. It's just that you would really be surprised how often this question is asked and sometimes it feels like nobody is even listening when we answer it over and over again.

I have a new sticky at the top of this forum about engine swaps. I suggest everyone check it out and do their part to help us get every last shred of information on this subject in one place so that it will be easy to find for anyone at any time.

Thanks.

Welcome to 2GNT, PhiLing. We're not always assholes. Stick around and you'll see. :thumbsup

Hey sorry, wasn't going for the assholish sound, but it's just funny to see a question like that when you just added the stickys Driggs.

Philing, welcome, stick around and start reading as much as you can, if you are really into this, you will find yourself just reading until you realize its about 2-3 hours after you wanted to go to sleep.

This site will get you very excited about modding your car. I had seen hahns site before joining here, but when I stumbled upon this site looking for pics of 2g's for my screensaver, I didn't even know what a forum was, and it only took 7 months before my car was turbocharged.

Driggs is doing some great stuff organizing some of the best info on this site and everyone here is more than willing to help when you can't find an answer. Trust me, I know sometimes you just want a quick answer spoon fed to you, I've done it before, but often searching will help you find what you are looking for while at the same time you'll find out something else.
