sell your 2003 indica and buy the new turbo indica instead if you are really keen on having the new one

Don't even try. The indica turbo is a lot more than turbo. Strengthened parts to take on the extra power. In an older indica reliability will suffer considerably, and the cost of the mod will be so much that you will be better off selling your old one and buying the new indica turbo

Hey Rahul

I kkow you will not be too happy with the suggestions, but trust me, tinkering with an Indica is one of the messiest jobs. I have experience with that so if you are too keen, then sell of your old Indica and get the new Turbo V2.
