"All the same except....". I think you answered your own question. They are different. Tolerance and QC was different. Marginal, but different. The pistons and rings are not up to the turbo task as explained by two others on this thread. You can turbo charge a Briggs & Stratton lawn mower engine. That does not mean it will last.
Andy is now going to install a turbo engine. That is the advise he should have been given in the first place.
There was a thread on this issue some time back.....some said go for it ...others said don't.
The debate goes on. I say don't turbocharge an engine that is not designed to be.
