Since there is no real turbo for the 1.8 sentra, does anyone know if you can use the turbo and intercooler off of the audi A4 T

not that i have seen anyone try it, but anything is possible with the right amount of time and enough money....

my guess is you will have to custom fab brackets for the intercooler to mount up. then get custom fabbed piping. engine management etc. with the factory turbo off of the A4 im guessing you could potetially hit about the same numbers as the 1.8t A4 unless you dial up the boost althought i dont know what kind of turbo they use thus i dont know how much psi max you can safely use.

They use K-series German turbos that tend to fail after about 80,000 miles. I know because my brother has an A4.

You COULD do this, but for the amount of work involved you'd be better off piecing together a turbo kit with brand new parts.
