Yes its possible, but the mpi engine no will mean that it needs to meet the emisions test for that year, which will probably be tricky,

however, it is a case if ditching the ecu and injection, rigging up a triger wheel and fitting megajolt, and retro fitting the turbo & turbo carb setup.

so if i changed it to run on carbs would it still need to meet the emissions for 1997? what determines the year it needs to meet?

I bet my first wank came quicker than your first mini turbo


These new modern turbos with their quick spool up time, would make the competition harder.
