More trouble than it's worth. Definetly not a "bolt up" job. You would probably end up cutting a hole in the hood, as it would not fit underneath. Then you would need to convert to a dry-type air filter, as the turbo would suck the oil right out of your oil bath air cleaner. Next you need to plumb in lubrication lines- run a pressure line from the engine's main oil galley to the turbo bearings, then find a place for the oil return line. The M&W aftermarket turbo set-up commonly found on 806, 826, and 856 tractors even had an oil filter that the oil passed through on it's way from the engine to the turbo. Now, the one thing that many people do not realize about turbos- they do absolutley nothing unless you have a load on the engine. To answer your other question- it would not cause uncontrolled idle, because the throttle lever controls the govoner, which controls engine speed by moving the throttle valve in the carb. The govoner senses and controls speed through a system of flyweights and by the amount of spring tension you place on it by moving the throttle lever.
