Welcome! Porsche solved this problem about 25 years ago with the 951. If you are looking for ideas it is a great place to start.

That's right. Porsche sells a 944 with a turbo.

Hahaha. I can see the "Can I Turbo My N/A" thread abuse already.
Welcome! To Rennlist. I'm not a specialist on putting a turbo on your N/A, but most of these guys will probably tell you that it's easier to buy a 951.

Edit: Ah ha! They beat me to it while I was writing this.

Its easy.

Just totally disassemble everything you can, and let it lay around everywhere for few years.

Just like I did..
