Yep it's the wagon. I'd love to have found a turbo on that thing. I assume it would be located somewhere in the vicinity of the intake and exhaust manifold. I certainly looked. There is also no badging on the car relating to "turbo".
I plan on doing much of the fabrication myself. This is easily as much about the doing and learning as the finished product. I've never built a header but I've built a bicycle frame.....
Garret has a neat ap called the "Boost Advisor". Plugging in the requisite specs with a HP goal of 150 spits out 205lbs of torque at 4.5 psi of boost. One of the turbos they have on the recommended list is a Gt2252.
