has anyone seen these liberty turbos they look shady to me, but does anyone know of any turbo system for libertys i know you can make a trubo for any engine, but a custom turbo would be really big bucks to do it right.

This has been discussed lots. You would have to do major work to the motor for a turbo not to destroy the motor. Pistons, bearings connecting rods etc...if I remember right. Someone will jump in with the correct info.

Look up Supercharger / Kenne Bell on this board. Much discussion. Kenne Bell was to make one for the 3.7. It turned out unmarketable due to the 3.7 would just get fried. Like Fulltimer states, Pistons, Rods, bearings and many other moveable parts just can't be tweaked much more without full on replacement with something better.

4BTA swap? Anyone?
