Bitten by the bug
Well it didn’t take long, but I’ve decided to start trying to squeeze some power out of my car. I never planned on turbo-ing this thing, but after significant amounts of reading, I have succumbed to the dark side. It seems like I’m asked at least once a week if I have a turbo under the hood, to which I reply “no” with my head hung in shame.
I’ve recruited some friends to help me with the swap, and I will detail the progress on this blog throughout the spring.
These cars were available from the factory with a turbo installed, so it should be fairly simple to locate parts and swap them over to my engine. The fun part will be removing 20 year old components without breaking bolts and studs. I plan to upgrade some other items while I have the car torn down as well as cleaning up the engine bay.
