Preaty sure they all used Series 5 FC turbos. On an NA the stock turbo seems to work well and is relatively cheap and easy to find. It also mates well with the stock manifold!

I use the plastic impeller. It gives me twenty lbs of boost and is run by my battery!

ignore that...

all the conversions I've read about use a stock tII manifold and turbo, but there is a spacer so the turbo will fit with the NA intake manifold. I am slowly getting around to making my own kit but I'm really low on funds and am contemplating a rebuild with tII housings so I can use the TII intake manifolds I've got.
