Probably wouldnt fit at all. Dont use Ebay turbos either.. If you want twins I would watch the for sale section and see if an APS or Incon kit comes up for sale.

since the k member and other chassis parts are diff, i would guess not, unless you can fabricate and change some of the pipes.

Should be plenty doable, depending on the turbo you throw on it and if the motor can handle it of course

Depends, theres tons of parts outside of the actual engine that could be in the way from the steering shaft to the motor mounts. Thats the problem with buying a motor specific turbo kit as oppose to a vehicle specific.
