in your '84 coupe???? which engine "WE" or "KX"? neither will produce power close to redline!
Swap in an "NF" with a cam and 4000q exhaust, you'll have power(about 145hp)up to 6000rpm.

Drops in, easier, cheaper but much less power....
With a turbo, you have to redesign all the intake plumbing/intercooler and swap all the fuel injection components and wiring harness for it!

So basically it's just a drop in, bolt in, plug in swap?
I'm interested because if it's that easy, I figure it wont have the lag of a turbo and maybe I could put some more time and money into building up a strong motor. What is their for cams, pistons and piston rods?

not at all. It's a drop in, yank out wiring harness, jerry-rig CIS distributor somewhere.
Get creative with the intercooler and intercooler tubing. Etc.
It's the only way to go, but it requires a lot of work...

You got lost in the thread, he's talking about cam/exhaust swap. Not the turbo swap.

Re: What should the maximum rpms reached on a 10v motor?
as some attention has come to this thread i guess i'll use it and not start a new.
from what i hear you cannot upgrade to a 20v head too easily. what with timing belts bolting it up to the block. unless i am wrong.
i'm sorta going the other way, i want to get a stroker crankshaft from 034 motorsport, i'll provide the link. a little low end torque never hurt an audi.<ul><li><a href="http://www.034motorsport.com/product_info.php?cPath=28_63&products_id=348"> Stroker Crankshaft, I5, 92.8mm Stroke</a></li></ul>
