www.fnf-motors.com you can get a TII Turbo engine with tranie and alternator with install for 2050$ its in Montreal. Take a look, its imported form Japan and has 205HP and around 50000Miles so about 100000 - 120000KM. The imported engines have more HP then the ones you buy in Canada or in the USA. Ive done my research on this. If anything it will cost you significantly less to buy the who engine from Japan then to just install a Turbo. I was priced at 3000 for the turbo and 2000 for the install on my stock 86 na. So next summer im going to fnf and getting the TII installed for 2000$. Just something to consider. Every one should know about the law in Japan about how they must change engines every 50000Miles, so Canada and USA buy them and import them.

All FC3S's in Japan come with a turbo, they are all 13bT's. This thread is 4yrs old and the author soly wanted to turbo his N/A.

The charged air is around 220 to 350 F that is quite hot. How hot is the air coming out of the RAD? Hot indeed and less efficient then in front would be, but heating it up I don’t think it will. Maybe someone has taken temps or air coming out of the RAD.

Clearly, I have asked a few questions. Everyone does. If someone had told me to search, I would have done my best to find the answer via the search. But the very reason I asked this question is because I DID search first, and got nothing. I always search before I ask something, because I've been here long enough to know that almost everything has been covered.

I may be a bit biased, but I think it was an OK question to ask. If you glance at an FD, the intercooler appears behind the rad. It is only once you examine the exact placement and the duct that you see it draws air from infront. I'm not an FD person, so I had not taken a detailed look at one.

^ exactly, im not saying people dont have questions, but the search feature is mediocre at best, it picks out the single word in a whole thread so searching could end up taking days. it just further shows why i think people should get some kind of a warning for posting "search for it" in a thread instead of bypassing if they dont want to take the time to answer.

Search feature is actually pretty cool and easy to use. People just are too stupid to search correctly. But if you check the forum everyday you seem to notice alot of short shifter threads and so on. Searching is just easier then retyping the same thing everyDAY.,
