turbo 2 rebuild ideas???
hey another question... i took the motor out... and i'm going to take it apart tomorrow... if its a 87 can i take out the air pump ? and make the motor allot simpler and run just the alternator ? and is it worth it to keep the stock turbo and just buy a turbo boost controller? any ideas on a nice rebuild let me know...

Depends on what you want out of the engine. The air pump can be removed, but you'll need a double alternator pulley to get enough belt contact on the water pump pulley. If you don't do this, the water pump will slip and you can develop cooling problems.
