I have an 88 n/a and an 87 Turbo II. Well the Turbo had a small fire above the exhaust and burned soem sensors and wires and all the hoses, and I was thinking if I should switch over the turbo stuff to the n/a, sell it and get that supercharger I have seen, or just try finding all the parts to fix the Turbo?

Keep the NA Daily Driver
Fix Up The Turbo |
Where would be the best place to find small parts and sensors without paying a fortune at the dealership? There are none in the junkyards in P.C. either. And also it might need a rebuild pretty soon 93 in front 72 in rear.
|
Do the atf trick on both rotors especially the rear and then do another check. 73PSI Comp. how old is the motor?
|
and as for parts ???? beats me
|
I did that with MMO before and that was before the check. It has 137,000+.
|
could need a rebuild soon
|
I am thinking about switching my n/a to turbo. Since I have both how hard would it be and is there a writeup on this? My n/a has around 135 psi for both. And then I was going to take off all the other parts and selling them on ebay or something. Or would it be easier to sell the whole car and buy NOS or something else for my n/a?
|
NOS = bad. VERY bad.
93/72..? Could need a rebuild. As far as turboing up an N/A 13B, it's not a bad idea , there are some write-ups for it around NoPistons.com....personally I would suggest repairing/rebuilding your Turbo 2, especially because if you screw up on the N/A 13B while trying to change it over, you'll be kicking yourself in the ass. Good luck man ^_^ https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683329.gif |
Where could i find a rebuild set that could fit a 17 year olds budget could afford?

https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif So then if I turbo my n/a I could run into alot of trouble? Then I guess I could rebuild my Turbo II motor and leave it in the same car. Then I could have twins. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683473.gif

I read about how people are ripping their engines apart all the time and porting them or experamenting with them. How do they buy the rebuild kits and where? The only one i found is at the dealership for $1,000+. And also what tool is used to port?

From what I've read, some beginners will use a dremel, while other folks may use a die grinder. I believe the grinding bits are carbide, which come in many shapes for different contours. |
All I need is the gasket set that gets replaced with rebuilds. Everything else is good. 93psi on front and 71 on rear.

Where do they sell good superchargers and is there a write-up of how-tos for this? And then I would have to get a n/a manifold right?
|
So actually if the engine parts are in specs, then it only cost around $300 for the gasket set?
