Well, I started with an 87 N/A, then I bought an 88 TII, and then swapped out the car completely...

generally in my opinion, since most of the ones i have done have been rebuilt they retained the 4 port shell of the motor for simplicity and the ports flow better on the 4 ports IMO.

but considering the seemingly lack of 4 port motor shells these days i figure we will see a fair amount more true 6 port turbo conversions. building one now in fact(just the engine though).

Because anyone with the time and money to do that would quickly realize they get more for said time and and money with the factory turbo drive train as a starting point.
