you can get a 12A-T setup from CORKSPORT! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif i've talked to them about it before.
and it's not 175 hp, more like 135 https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/boink.gif honestly for the same amount of $ you could probably do a TII swap and have more power potential however the 12A_T is a Unique setup for somebody wanting something DIFFERENT. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif |
i was planning on doing this b4 and parts where to hard to find and a lil expensive if i could find them. not too mention if your planning on big performance, it is somewhat limited with these engines due to only 2 fuel injectors. and like stated, that turbo is almost maxed out to begin with so u would have to replace it. and when i was tryin 2 find the motor the soonest i was told was a 9 month wait. and with the early turbo motors, they had weaker seals so they often went out at 20-40k miles. but if u were already planning a rebuild this doesnt matter to u. if your jus lookin for more power in your first gen id say prolly do a t2 swap or if u wanted to stay 12a, jus turbo your existing motor, carbed turbo 12a's make power somewhat easily and if you have a welder and mechanical skill you can do almost everything yourself for relatively cheap. jus my 2 cents, goodluck
