Ok first of I know nothing technical about cars at all.

Seeming as I'm on the new P laws, I can't drive turbo. So would it be possible to buy a turbo car (1999 Subaru Forester GT) and have the turbo removed? If so How much would it cost?

Thanks.

It's possible but very pointless.

Get an NA forester. Will be cheaper, faster, and it will run better.

just dont do it....buy a n/a , cheaper and less hassle

You'll need to swap out the entire engine pretty much. Why not just buy a non-turbo forester? If you just remove the turbo the engine will run worse than a standard non-turbo engine because the turbo engine will be running lower compression.

Ok thank for your help guys. I saw a GT up for auction, but I think I'll just stick to the N/A forester's as planned.

Cheers.
