505 Performance makes turbo systems for pre-JK jeeps. You can look at them here. However, at least member on this forum had a really hard time with his. Whether that means his installation was incompetent or the product was bad, I have no idea.

There are so many things you will need for a turbo setup...

Full exhaust, manifold, turbo, intercooler, plenty of plumbing, fuel pump, iinjectors, engine management, inlet, intake, a solid tune from a reputable tuner, dyno time, stronger transmission/gears/axles ect.........

i looked on 505 and thats why i was trying to find the manifold. i cant find anywhere i dont wanna spend 4,000 for the kit when i could do it myself. as for all the injectors and everything they wouldnt need to be replaced at the boost i was planning to run.

if you are able to put the kit together, why couldn't you flip an exhaust header upside down and fabricate a baseline for the turbo to mount to? While a different platform, we do the same on a mustang if making a setup.
