My 90' NA turbo build pics..

Do a little more work and replace that turbo manifold.

its being port matched and re welded to hold and more work meaning?

specs on head? or was it just rebuilt?

Everything looks great, you've obviously put the hours into this car.

It's just that crummy turbo manifold. That turbo manifold is GOING to fail. It's just a matter of time. They are notorious for being shit. Also, it's not just the welds, it's the super thin steel that cracks.

More work means have a new manifold made from one of our awesome forum fabricators or buy a new/used quality manifold from the classifieds.

Good luck.

yeah the head is just a rebuild with some strength lol.. and yeah i know but the manifold was a quick buy and im doing things to try and support it.. ive put almost $3,800 in the car and as most of you know its mostly surprising payments.. so money is tight but ay ITS THE TURBO LIFE. I STILL LOVE IT :)

nice car man. have you looked into the JGS manifolds? Thats probably what im gonna run on mine. either that or get the flanges cut and just but the Schedule 40 elbows and Ts

Good luck on turbo manifold. At least it no hit block. Dare I ask what engine management you are running?

ordering a megasquirt asap..

i would actually be more then appreciative if i can receive some help on these "MEGASQUIRTS" ive only seen them for $600 and thats a pretty hefty price knowing i have to go get a wideband as well.

what is braineack? or who.

One of the admins of this site, PM him. He'll build you a MS unit for around $400 or $450 I believe, a fair bit cheaper than the MSPNP unit at $600, and although you'll be using an adapter harness, it'll also be PNP.

thanks alot.. i will pm him when i have the cash in hand no need to bother him before hand

who makes that turbo? and what are you doing with the headers?

headers are for sale..
