Which EJ22 can I turbo?

I am planning on putting a EJ22 in my 72 std Beetle. I want to run a stock turbo, but I have read that there is only a certain model EJ22 that will take a turbo which model is it?

There are 2.2s that have a turbo from the factory, I'd suggest you try to get a hold of one of those and save yourself the trouble of having to re-engineer the whole turbo setup.

where abouts are you? cos im pretty sure from memory that only the US got SOHC EJ22 turbos and it was only for a couple of years in the early 90s

EJ20T are everywhere why not go with one of them?
if its fitment issue SOHC heads can be retrofitted but they dont take as much boost

Didn't know the 2.2T was only available in US/Canada.
