Turbo
I want to use a TII turbo on my 12a. I think it is possible to put a turbo on a 12a anyway. I've been searching around but I don't know which turbo is best for my streetported 12a. Anyone with a streetported 12a with a turbo setup.....HELP!!

There is a vital question you forgot to ask yourself when picking a turbo setup for your 12A: How much power do i want.
For about 200-300hp, a Garrett T28R would be okay, but for more or less power you have to consider if its worth it or what else needs to be considered.
A standard 12A turbo had a Hitachi HT18, and was capable of 250hp or so. If you want to go larger, a GT3540 Garrett would be pretty good if you are chasing about 350hp+.
Either way you probably have to get custom Headers/Exhaust, ECU, INtercooler and plumming.
