While its certainly possible to make an n/a fast, by the time you did, you'd have spent more than if you just went out and bought a turbo.



If you have a serious need for speed, buy a Turbo II.



If you want a fun, economical daily driver, buy an n/a.



And while there are exceptions to this rule, remember: The faster your car is, the more time its going to spend sitting in the shop getting fixed.



And most definitely: As the speed of your car increases, so does the rate at which money flies out of your wallet. There are no exceptions to this rule!

I'll go with N/A modded running a happy mid 12



And i'm NOT a drag racer either. It could be an extreamly balanced sports car still getting 15mpg

you sia d you need the ride to get you to work... so if you need reliability, you better go with the na. cuz turbo 2's as much fun and a fast as they can be are not as reliable.

I took a T2 with a downpipe

on stock ports with the 88 manifold



Bridgeports can have a nice 1000-1200 rpm idle with a tuned EFI system
