Ok well i have an 89 gtu 5 speed. The engine has about 30k miles on it and it runs very strong but i want more power. So what do i have to do to the engine to make it the same as a turbo s5 motor, so i can bolt the turbo s5 upper and lower intake manifolds on? Can i just change the end lids and switch them with 4 port ones, and put low compression apex seals in? I want to use the core i have, i dont mind changing things on it. I want to do this because i want to buy an upgraded turbo kit for the car rather than buying a long block turbo block. And i want a single turbo set up like a t4 or something. I want a reliable 400hp at the wheels. What should i do?

save money, sell the stock 6 port motor, buy a s5 or s6 or re motor thats turbo already and use a wolf 3d or something like that with the new turbo motor. trust me its alot better and more reliable to just swap the motor then try and make a 6 port motor turbo and get 400bhp reliably.

what color is your GTU ? and to get 400rwhp reliable is expensive........you will need to change the trans/diff/drivelines engine computer etc etc

The turbo engines breather lots more.



ENGINE REBUILD with different rotors + High oil Pressure parts



Turbo



intercooler



exhaust work



turbo manifold



rear end from T2



drive shaft from t2



ACT clutch



brakes



..........Pretty much it can be done but its easier and little cheaper just to buy a T2
