Pretty sure I saw a turbo manifold to suit a Saturn for sale a while back. It was cast but not sure if it was factory or not. Think it might have been in Malaysia?
Think there might have been a turbo Saturn engine for sale earlier this year too?

sold it to a member on here

Chain drive? If what you want is power and torque - not worth the effort imho. Unless you want something that noone else has. Depends what you want from your motor really.
I have all the goods to build a 4G32 T (Chain) - decided to go NA.
T.

Yeah shelbygto's old engine ( which I now own ) is a very well setup engine I have yet to take it for a spin but there's a lot of work gone into it and seems to work well from what I've been told as I say I've yet to try it out sad really as it looks like a weapon but ill get there

Probably a stock manifold, the 4g32b came in a turbo variant came in the Dodge Colt GTS (Colt/Mirage turbo US Spec only), Eagle Vista (Canada market Mirage), Cordia turbos, Tredias.

Yep the Cordia did come out with a G32B turbo engine. It is a nasty contraption - it's a draw through carby set up but not like the Sigma turbo. I think the boost is 6 psi max and is non adjustable. I have no idea why anyone would want to use it when a bigger engine performs better.

yer i was thinking bout things i could do to a 1600 to make it go better for a while, i thought, sc14, turbo, na build with webbers on it and a cam, buy the time ya spen the money on it, and the fuel it would use a 2.6 was the better option imo, i went with a efi 2.6 in my daily galant gd wagon, been realy good, the motor is a bit sad tho, but im onto another i can rebuild then drop back in
