Can we fit turbo unit in 2004 Indica V2 - DLS car? If yes, how reliable will be the car and what could be the cost for this? How much will be the difference in performance? (Is it worth?)

If anyone has done it before?

Yes it is possible to turbo charge your indica.You would also need to add intercooler to survive the additional heat.Buttttt it costs a bomb.It will go nearly to lakh.Again reliabilty will suffer.Instead try searching used turbo indica or else live with the underpowered indica.You can try installing K&N filter to improve the power slightly.




Cars make CO2 and trees absorb CO2. By driving your car you're feeding a tree and helping the environment.

As stated by Omkar, the turbo retrofitment will cost substantially high - may be 60-80K (35-40K for the turbo itself).  Intercooler (12-15K) is, however, not necessary - Indica Turbo comes with & without Intercooler.  In any case, perfomance of retrofitted turbo will not match with the original turbo engine. 

Drop the idea - it will be a prudent decision.
