Yea I'm alive all I have been doing lately is just checking the thread. But I got my manual boost controller to work. Still looking for an electronic one. And picked up some 12a parts from Ransom for my first gen. Hopefully pep that car up some for a better daily driver. Been trying to get some more parts for the turbo but like everyone should know its getting more expensive when there is more demand for power. But still getting more stuff figured out. Friend rode in it when the roads dried out he was pretty suprised he hasent rode in it at all just seen pics. He's here on leave from the service.

"Whoa, its fast." he says ha ha.

Hopefully get some more stuff going here soon with these rotary powered vehicles of mine. Just been too busy with work mainly... But progress will be achieved!

ok, my turn to update. superstock in missoulla probly just lost my business, he won't call me back. BUT, i found an n/a for my s4, so i may just buy that and use it as my dd!! then i'll stuff the t2 into my 90. and i'll upgrade as the $$ comes in.

stophie bro just install the N/A 4 your DD and sell your 90. Save some cash and get yourself a TII for 4 to 5 grand in good shape. It will save you TONS compared to the N/A to Turbo swap. Trust.

^ This is indeed your best option.

I paid that much for a motor. If you count the worthless Jspec it was $5,300






Watch the machinist sometime. That is what u feel like once the Turbo swap takes hold of you...........

You need a motor there kevin? It comes with a new starter and waterpump. It also has a set of coils, extra carb, intake, and it even comes with a block heater. that will help those cold starts. I am only looking to get $250 and I can deliver to helena or we can meet in Wolf Creek at my cabin.



Oh and my update is nothing is happening. Lots of dust collecting. Thats about it.

Well that sucks if I would have known that I would not have painted it but its been done for a while now. Oh well not like I did any body work to it.I just got rid of the rust coated it with POR15 and painted it. Money is going towards the 7 right now anyway. Maybe take you up on that a while down the road.
