Hey, are there any differences between the S4 na block and S4 turbo block. Can you just switch out the manifolds and electronics. The car I am buying has an Na engine in it now but the manifold for the turbo is still on there just blocked off and the electronics are still in there. I think he swapped in an 88 na engine and just put the old turbo manifolds on, also some of the electronics are still around just not connected.

Turbos are 4 port, na's are 6 port.

am i missing something here?

fc3sboy1 05-17-2005 06:34 PM

maybe someone dropped in an old 4 port 13b na motor ?

sorry didnt fully explain I have yet to confirm the 6th ports but the engine is from a 88 gxl I think so I assume it has 6 ports. I guess its kinda hard to explain maybe ill take some picks once i get the car in. In the case that it does have 6 ports that pretty much solves my questions, totally forgot about that https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683664.gif .

In order for the stock turbo manifold to clear the N/A intake manifold, you will either need to get a set of Tii manifolds, and port match the LIM to the N/A LIM gasket.



OR



Put a spacer on the stock turbo manifold.



OR



Just buy an FD manifold, drill out the bolt holes a bit. (aftermarket turbo/wastegate reqd)

stupid computer

So the Fd manifold would be easier to fit on, other than using a spacer on the T2 manifold

Wait, the guy u got it from swapped a n/a engine into a TII, and the manifolds and everything just bolted on? how the hell does that work, and where are the 5th and 6th ports exhausting to?
