Talking Choices

Recently I lost a rotor on my 88 GXL. I've been trying to think of some choices for my car in terms of the engine. To me the N/A motor is not as quick as a turbo. I personally like boost but cannot find a turbo II engine to install in my car(If you have one running I'll buy it ). Would buying a Rebuilt turbo core and trying to assemble the rest of the accessories to make the engine run be worth my time or should I just give in and rebuild/streetport my GXL's engine? Or just buy another car...

I would just rebuild it as an N/A yourself, and port/ modify as you wish, a lot cheaper than your other choices, and will take less time...but that's my opinion...

its up to your time and money i think i'm doing a tII swap once i get all the parts together i just like to have the turbo because theres more options you can do to it but making a n/a perform like a turbo it will cost alot i would search ebay for engines if you dont got a time limit id say go to a turbo swap
