New to Forum...12a to 12aT question
I have a 12a right now in an '83. About how much does it cost to convert it into a 12a turbo? How is the difficulty in doing that? Is there anything else other than an engine swap that'll give me more Hp?
Thanks
Joe

Turbo is not the only way to boost performance.
You can install a headder or complete exhaust from Racring Beat that is a great jumping off point.
If that does not suit you you can try a modified Carb from Sterling.
The Turbo Set up can be done with out an engin swap but there is some custom fab work that needs to be done.
Spend some time on the froum for a while before you go swaping engins and stuff.
Make a list of what you want to get out of this car, and then make a plan to achive it.
Don't just go making quick decsions that this is what you want to do because it is cool to have a car with a turbo...

^^^^^I agree.....I'm about 200 bucks shy of my full RB system. Check out the links I posted, they show you some of the little things you can do here and there. I'm currently reading up on turbos to do an install myself.
