The week I bought my GXL he wouldnt stop talkin about the good ole rotary days for him, tales of 12k rpm revs, setting the buzzer to 10k and if the buzzing ever stopped you knew to downshift (!)

bah, Nitrous can be a Viable option, IF, it is done correctly, and thoughtfully, it is much, much harder to do reliably on a turbo than a N/A since you already have the stress of the turbo on the engine, adding "nos" is just going to make you look stupid, as you sit smoking on the side of the road, though, there are 1 or 2 people who have turbo/Nitrous rotary beasts, it is much easier, and cheaper to concentrate on turbo-centric upgrades, i.e. exhuast/intake/ BIG turbo and fuel, lots of fuel, first, last and always more fuel

what is the best and most economic turbo upgrade for the 91 turbo II? How much will it cost me? where can I get it? How much will it help over the stock turbos? Also what do you guys suggest dso I can get traction in this beast...well when it becomes a beast lol? Also what fuel systemn should i use? What intake? Basically tell me how to get my car faster than 14's. Reliablity isnt a big issue...this isnt an everyday driver... this is gonna be my car I take to the races and embarrass all those chevy guys.

ditch the stock air box, get an FCD (fuel cut defencer) get a large diameter exhuast from the turbo back, and get a Walbro in tank fuel pump, and a good aftermarket boost guage, careful you don't spike too high. after that, umm, I am not sure, I am still trying to get my hands on a turbo, so....
