I'm sure it will fit. Theres one in a 5 turbo.

There is also a megane coupe having one fitted and he's just used a combination of F4R and F4Rt engine mounts.

The problems start arising with turbo location, fit it at the rear as per Ktec conversions and your turbo size will be seriously limited. Obviously you could move it round above the gear box (5GTturbo style) but you'll need a custom manifold and down pipe.

You'll also need custom driveshafts, custom intercooler/induction set up, hydraulic clutch assembly, a new management system (+Loom.

And thats just off the top of my head.

It really is unrealistic, your best bet would just be to turbo your normal F4R engine, with a bit of sensible shopping you could create a 300+ monster for about the same as Ktecs low pressure kit.
