Hey new to the site. I just got a 1996 hardbody with the KA24E. I want to build the motor to eventually be turboed. I’m not really having much luck finding parts for it. Anyone have any websites I could try out? Or any opinions on what brands to use? Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks!

Before you start looking for parts research the changes that will need to be done to the ECU in order to get the engine up & running. Most parts will have to be customized or aftermarket. When completed - Money - time & the horsepower you gain isn’t worth it. If you looking to increase Horsepower your better off going with a small block V8 conversion. Another thing I would recommend go to the drug store and purchase some over the counter sleeping pills so you don’t lay awake thinking about doing things like this.
