Question What benefits if I upgrade to a 90 Turbo?

I got an 87 T2 and was thinking of upgrading to the 90 turbo & manifold. Just wondering what sort of benefits its going to provide?...anyone got this setup going...87/88 car with 89-92 turbo?

It will give you less boost creep, and more boost due to the wastegate design. It is a pretty good upgrade to 87-88 TII's. The manifold has larger ports in it with no twin-scroll actuator. You should see about 1-2lbs more boost.

Save your money and get some performance upgrades - unless this is a 2nd car

Really gen the round tail lights and a few minor performance upgrades and you'll think / look like an 89-92 TII.
