Well, I picked up my Turbo II last Friday. Amazing. I cant only like 600 mi more to go before the engine is broken in, then it's killing time. Only one question:



How do I know for sure if it's really a turbo II or just a converted NA?



Either way, it's quick and I love it.

is there an intercooler on the right of the manifold?

boost gauge

Yes, there is a stock boost guage on the interior panel.

Also stock intercooler and hood.



I ask because some car parts are different shades of white (hood, front and rear bumpers, spoiler, side mirrors)

The Turbo models have seats with added side bolstering. You say its an 87 so it should also have the two spoke momo factory steering wheel.



Other things would be



an interooler with "turbo II" painted on it

a snail looking thing hooked to the engine and exhaust https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

Boost gauge in lower left of instrument cluster (basically worthless)

turbo II badging

you should see a tag on the rear diff that says "fill with limited slip additive oil only"

16" turbo fin rims, or if you are lucky, they have been replaced as they weigh 29lbs

unless added on by the previous owner, there should be no back seat

and the last I can think of is it should have power windows, cruise control, and AC

just check the vin #

All that checks out less the momo steering wheel. I'll check on the LSMD oil tag.

checking the VIN probably would be easiest actually



What does it have for a steering wheel?

check ur trottle body (manifold) anybody have a picture of a TII TB and a N/A TB. they look a lot different

the lazy mans way to tell is to look at the vin.

jm1fc331 is an na

jm1fc332 is a turbo

jm1fc351 is a vert

jm1fc352 is a vert with airbags
