wuz up everyone, i know everyone has asked this question before, but how much would it be to get a whole turbo 2 swap, including rear end, drive shaft, tranny, engine. and is this swap easy is everything plug in or do i have to change some things thanx

It's not exactly plug and play...but it does bolt in, u really dont need to fab anything.



Price would be anywhere from $2k and up really..unless you get a cheap parts car...



its way cheaper and easier to buy a T2 in most cases though...

yea to find a turbo2 where i live is impossible ive tryied looking for the longest so im better of doing the swap

I have an 89 drivetrain less the engine for sale. and the ECU, harness, AFM

Drivetrain is the only real hard part, swapping the rear end is a pain.

Where are you located. I have a complete TII drivetrain available.



Series 4 Engine / wiring harness and ECU complete - $500



Tranny / Driveshaft / Rear end - $750





I am in Florida just north of West Palm and can deliver in Florida.

BTW - The rear is mounted in the cradle. I also know where there is a TII hood for sale for $150.

Wish I had the money, wouldn't sell my GXL. and you're not that far from me either. damn money problems. would it be possible to drop in a TII engine without changing tranny and rear? just for a short period of time (say 2 weeks with gentle daily driving)?

i remember hearing about one guy who did the turbo swap on his gxl and never changed the rear end.

it wont take as much power but in stock form he was running faster than stock TII's. he accredited it to the gearing in the NA trans.

so it can be done but if you wanna mod the car than you should just change the whole drivetrain

yeah, would be ok with stock for the time being, -checks wallet for $500.00 lol-
