Nothing wrong with turboing a 5ME, just 2 probs:
- finding an MTEU exhaust manifold, and
- finding an MTEU dizzy.
The MTEU manifolds have a habit of cracking, but can repaired, but the most important thing is the MTEU dizzy. It retards the timing by up to 15 degrees when it sees positive pressure. It would appear that the BHG problem is most likely related to running the std dizzy, and all the associated detonation. Sean Gannon had a 500 hp 5MTE which also blew head gaskets, but it was running 30 psi boost.
You could turbo a 5/6MGE. Aaron Garney outlines it beautifully here.
Personally I wouldn't do either unless you have the bits lying around - you'd just be polishing a turd. If you have money and time, then do the 7MGTE or 1JZGTE. Either one will yield spectacular results.
