Looking for proper mods (bang for buck)
I have a 1988 GXL with new racing beat header, APEX GT spec exhaust (not installed) and K&N Filtercharger intake. For $1300 what is the best bang for my buck and should I just scrap the N/A and go for a Turbo II swap.
Thanks,
Alex

check the faq and search the forum. but $1300 will more than max out an NA engine unless you open it up and do porting but that same $1300 probobly wont cover half of a tII swap. maybea set of coilovers?

What do you plan to do with it? Just keep in mind, you're going to hit a wall with the NA unless you're willing to spend a whole lot of money. I think you'll find street ported NAs will hit a wall around the mid 2s while you can get a street turbo 2 up to 400ish. Just keep that in mind if you're not on a tight budget.
