Does anyone know if you can add a turbo to a 4.6 in a 1997 HSE? Would a supercharger be better?:5bAngel_anim:
Can you turbo charge a 1997 4.6?

There's not alot of room for turbo's on an LP RR,alot easier to find a Sprintex blower.It has been done - like just about everything else,but not easy to do properly or cheaply.

TVR Power > Upgrades > SC Supercharger
Although in my opinion just chucking a charger at it is a bit of a bodge. it was one route that I was considering going down, but would ideally require a new CosCast block, top hatted and cross bolted, along with some decent headwork, (not the abortion that Land Rover and TVR did), and low compression pistons.
You could be looking at £15'000 just for a motor at that point.
Didn't John Eales supercharge a few Range Rovers and Discoverys? Might be worth giving him a call. He aint cheap though. But if you want cheap, it proberly wont last.
