We have engineered a Turbo kit, I've been running it on my 87' for a couple years, since it was so anemic at elevation.

However, it won't go into production because people asking me how to do it themselves outnumbers legitimate requests to buy one 50:1, which was a waste of my valuable time. I'm a Vanagon fan, but I have to eat and take care of my family! A good kit is $2500-3000, and finding a vanagon owner that would actually pay this is rare.

I may be selling the engine with the turbo kit on it in the next year (no I will not sell just the kit).
