I don’t expect it to las too long either way. I’m currently starting to gather all of the necessary bits to do a 2.3 turbo swap, I just thought it’d be fun to add a few extra ponies to the turd before I swap it out.

I know it’s a bit of a reach, but does anyone have a carbd turbo setup they’d be willing to part with? Looking into lightly boosting the 144 in my falcon and that looks like the easiest way to go about it...

From what I'm reading in the book, 82 is related to a thermactor diverter, I'm guessing something that the turbo chicken I got the vam and eec from had, but my xr does not. How do I eliminate the code? Does it effect how my car runs? 83 was fans, egr, and something else that had been "eliminate...

Intercooler will help immensely.

Just because I'm curious, what do the widebody molds look like?

I've got one I'm looking to sell, or trade for a 3". Let me know. Message me for pics.

It's just an eBay special, nothing super cool. As far as the intake temps go, couldn't tell ya, but I can get it to operating temp, hammer on it like crazy, temp gauge doesn't skyrocket anymore, and I can palm the upper intake with no issues, so I'm guessing MUCH cooler! I did bump up the boost a sm...

Finally got my fmic installed! Man I wish I had done this sooner! Anyone who is considering this mod, do it! You won't regret it! It pulls harder, stays cooler, and looks cooler too! Love it!

round 2, still looking to see if anyone would be willing to trade. Can get pics on request. Still have the stock cat pipe, just not on the car currently. No holes or rust, I'd say it's in good shape. Let me know if you're interested

I'd like to put some on my car, going for the rally look, but I'm not really wanting to use the big ol rubber truck flaps Ive got from a previous vehicle.. ideas?

Pm sent! Got home a little sooner than I thought I would.

I'm in Colorado, in the springs. Long story short, I don't currently have the funds to buy a 3" turbo back setup. But, I'm willing to work out a deal to trade my rapido exhaust for a 3" turbo back, and can possibly put up some cash to balance things out if needed. Don't want to remove the ...

I was just trying to figure out what was wrong with my engine harness. Never figured it out so I just replaced it with one from blugg and the car is up and running now...

I second that! Looks nice! Might have to see about having you make me up a few bits here and there, seeing as I'm in the springs and could pick up parts, if you're ok with it.

Oh man, I wish! Maybe if someone doesn't buy it I'll be game.
