<< No Peter the Turbo will not fit in the clow but our supercharger will.  >>

Darryl Greenameyer successfully installed a Turbo'd 550 in a Legacy;  however this required MANY custom parts and the installation is far from optimum.  With spray water cooling and methanol / water ADI, the aircraft is the fastest Legacy around and won last year's Reno Sport Class.  Take away the spray water and ADI, and the cooling is highly compromised along with continuous cruise power.  So Rick S. has a very good argument on his side when he says that the supercharger is the better deal for a Legacy doing cross country.
