i'm hoping to turbocharge at some point in the (distant i.e. off-warranty) future... and i fully believe you'd have to upgrade the pistons and rods to handle the boost. these engines run a 10.5:1 compression... way too high for boosting safely! i'm thinking a set of forged, lower-compression (8.5?) pistons and forged rods for the future.
