NO quick easy answer on that one, there is a write up in the archives you should look at.

That answer was quick and easy for me good luck

Well, he wasn't asking how to do it, was just asking how much it'd cost based on the experience of others. Sometimes I wonder if I'm dealing with FD owners or FB owners in this forum. (No offense to those FD owners, I know not all of you are ******)

The large print portion, I believe is asking how. I could have read it wrong, cause us accused FD ***** owners have a tendancy to read the question our way. But my answer still stands this has been covered more times then people sneeking pics of the purple car on here. Which by the way hasn't happened in a long time. There is an excellant write up on this in the archives.

I sent the guy in the right direction to answer the above question. Coldy will probably put his copy and paste answer on here in the future. I wonder why he would have a copy and paste answer?

TII turbo exhaust will fit any 13-B motor but the GSL-SE intake will require quite a bit of grinding to clear the turbo. On the other hand, the TII's lower intake manifold will require mods too to fit a GSL-SE motor.
