Alright here's a long story short. I bought an 88 Turbo II coupe, no engine. Now I have an S4 engine to "drop in" but all the little peices are missing. I have no hoses, nuts or bolts or any of that good stuff that holds a car together.

Not far from me there's a guy selling a failed N/A to turbo conversion (S4 N/A with S5 Turbo engine). The N/a Motor is sitting in the car but is blown. He also has an S5 motor sitting out back minus turbo but with tranny.

Now for the questions:

1: I need the bracket, the P/S, the AC, and the Air Pump. Can I take those off of the N/A motor and put them on my turbo?

2: The hoses and such, I know they're not all there but can the majority be used on my Turbo Motor? Could someone specify which hoses can be used?

3: Can a N/A radiator be used on a Turbo?

4: Does anyone know of any rotary tuners in the western PA area? It would make my life a lot easier.


Well I think that's about it for now. I have a hell of a jigsaw puzzle on my hands but it'd be much appreciated if someone could give me some pointers. Thanks.

Im not sure enough to answer questions 1-3 but I would assume most parts from a NA to turbo are the same. As for question #4 try the regional forum to see if they know anybody around your area.
Someone please correct me if I am wrong apart the parts being interchangeable

The bracket that holds the A/C and P/S is the same.
Not sure about #2.
The radiators are the sameas long as you stay within the series.A S5 radiator will work in a S4 car but some of the earlier S4 won't work on a S5 due to the lack of a filler neck on the radiator.
Don't know about #4

I wouldnt bother with that. You have no way of knowing the condition of the motor. Too many people are looking to make a quick buck.

Yep, but I wouldnt bother. AC sucks and PS you really dont need. I can steer with one hand at a complete stop with 225s up front (bit wider tire than stock). The air pump you dont need unless you live in an emission testing area.

The heater core and radiator hoses should be the same, as should the oil cooler. Those are really all you need.

Yes, any radiator from a 2g should fit in any series. The mounting brackets should all be identical (I dont recall aftermarket companies selling s4 and s5 radiators).
