If you want more speed, press harder on the gas pedal.

You would probably think this is a thread that I would like to participate in. That is actually not the case.

They (more or less) answered your question. You didn't even tell us what turbo stuff you have. If said turbo stuff is an ebay kit, don't do it.

I don't particularly understand why you'd buy "a turbo and all the gear", and then wonder if you should install it. What did you buy it for? :dunno:

Theres nothing wrong with my post. I don't even think its negative. If I had told the guy I don't think he could turbocharge his way out of a wet paper bag that would be negative.

The thread is a waste of time.

Have a fun trip.

If you are still lurking and read this, like Jeremy mentioned, if you have all the gear why even ask if yo should? From your questions and attitude turboing your car is a terrible idea. You will find the best e28 turbo advice here but don't expect to be spoonfed. Did you read through the FAQ already?

Seems this project might get aborted in utero.

Cue Shagrath and absurd religious debate!

I smudge a little extra shit into each crevice of every post, just to make it that much better.

OP - that is a great idea for you. Nothing less than 26 lbs of boost though. GO FOR IT! Don't listen to the haters.
