2nd gen newbee

i've been a 1st gen 12a owner but just picked up an 88 n/a and the motor is in peices and figure it's the best time to make more power but need to know what the best thing i should do. I know i'll be turboing it but not sure of all what i should do. I'm looking to get 400+ maybe 500 hp

I'm assuming that you're using an n/a 13B to start with, since you said you'll be turboing it.

Search for Aaron Cake's writeup on a 6-port turbo. To get to 400HP will take a good deal of time and money. For 500HP, you'll also need a good deal of knowledge and luck. Especially if you're talking about those figures without nitrous.

He said he's turboing it, so I think he's working with a 13B, not a 13BT. That means he has even more work ahead of him.

True. You should put this in the lounge. Most of the older turbo 2nd gen guys, like TitaniumTT hang out in there now.

based on what? Just follow the cookie trail into the white van with the Lounge decal on the side.


As far as the OP:

Did you read the FAQs? The information available is so vast that it will make you wonder why you wasted your time writing/making a new thread about it.
