Here is the first calculation to apply a turbo on a non turbo engine. with this calculation you are also able to get a quick check about the to be expected horsepower.
Of course you also can calculate a bigger or different turbo Simply redo the calculation with the base engine and calculate again with the higher boost pressure.
