And stock TIIs runs mid to low 15s. If he majorly screwed up, he could have ran that time in the 1/8th mile
Thats all I have ever seen the Turbo II's pull on paper.The one at the track is beefed up a bit and pulls 14.8's all day.

I would think they have potential to drop into 10's or 11's fairly easily.

Vosko's TurboII was fast.When it was running. Just need a good supply of fuel and crank up the boost.I would run it at 14psi with a pump upgrade and injectors.You could use FD injectors.I can't remember how to hook them up right now tho.

Well of course they are fast when modded. Mine with only a downpipe ran 14.5@98.



Now that I have 11lb flywheel/ACT clutch, 89-91 manifold, TB mod/full 3" exhaust, once I get an ECU so I dont hit fuel cut and get an intake, I should be mid 13s

if you have to rebuild your engine anyways, you have an opportunity to gain a significant amount of power for very little cost over the already needed rebuild. port the housings while you have it apart. you will likely need to modify some other things (wastegate for instance) to be able to control boost still, fuel system upgrades will be a must if you don't want to rebuild again in the near future.

Too much



I'll just say, more than what I paid for the car.
