Its going to cost a lot to find a NOS 2 .3 turbo complete

Maybe 20PSI, new computer, new 3" VAM, and some porting will make it faster

For pictures of my build-up on "No Hands" PM me

BrianW Welcome to Esslinger Engineering
is a good place to start.They have short
blocks, heads and whole motors.
Another good place to get sites and ideas is from one of the "stickys" [parts sites] at the start of our forum
