Swap in a normally aspirated 20b with streetport, then tell me exactly how you did it :bigthumg:

Hi Mike, in my neck of the woods, 12a turbos are usually the main swap. The main reason for this is the 'powers that be' will only approve the swap with the 12a turbo. Not that stops anyone, there's one or two floating around with a 20b turbo in the bay. Mine has a 13b bridgeport that I built for it, it's quite respectilble, but not a turbo unfortunatly. Good luck.

I voted 13b turbo, it might be more reliable and a bit faster.
