Ok, First the skinny on my car.
1988 TurboII. Mostly stock.. What I've done so far...... I've started the mod process on my car. Installed the K2RD blockoffs, except the MOP. I plan on removing the rats nest and vac lines. I will eventually replace the Fuel lines with AN fittings and an aftermarket FPR. for now I am keeping the engine and turbo stock, or until the engine detonates (is currently @ 170k miles and shows signs of oil seal wear.) And a Full RB turboback exhaust. TID mod. A few questions... How do I keep this car reliable? I will primarily keep the engine stock until I can afford to upgrade. But I just want Soild relaibility with this car. Also is a FPR and AN fittings to remove the damn pulsation damper (mine was leaking) Worthwhile? Plus getting a Walboro fuel pump? Or should I just go get a Haltech while the whole damn thing is apart? Or should I just stop this iinsanity before I throw a seal? |
Reliable.... hmmmm
Don't run past 9psi on stock turbo. Get a frontmount Get a haltech/ems whatever... Fuel upgrades, bigger radiator... gauges.... upgrade oil cooler lines, and oh yea GENERAL MAINTENCE... |

Freestyle, thanks for the input. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/blink.png
Ok, so, would just fuel mods, FPR, FCD Walboro Fuel Pump, Stock intake, RB full exhaust. All emissions removed. Be reliable? I have not done a compression check on the engine, but it still runs very strong. I figure get some of this crap done because I enjoy rotarys and have so for the past 5 years. So yeah I do plan on keeping the car. And with a Haltech, can it be programmed to work with a stock turbo and block? Is there stock maps? Thanks |
If your PD is still leaking I would try and fix that soon, since the possibility for fire exists.
