Default Turbo II S5 engine build
Hey yall I just bought a 89 Turbo II with a blown engine. 1 housing is scratched and its missing a rotor (the last owner must have needed a new doorstop). I was thinking of buying a JDM S5 turbo II motor but none have warranties. I know they claim to have less than 60k miles but is it worth it to just rebuild right off the bat? I intend on making 350 - 400 hp so I suppose I would need to upgrade the seals anyways. Any advice on what I would need to get to that mark?
