Spotted: John's '87 TurboII

So I realized that no one in Houston has seen my TII yet and today I got her back together and running so I figured a picture was in order!



She's running on a MS1 with spark and fuel control, an A2W intercooler and I think the turbo is a T04E. I still have a lot of tuning to do, but she starts fairly easily and drives around ok. At this rate I'll definately have her at the next meet!

Thanks Chuck. I paid for the GB subscription on RX8Club....got a lot more interest over there. But I haven't heard back from either of the mods that I PM'd, so I'm not sure if I'm allowed to actually start the GB. The info that's up there concerning GB's is very confusing and should be fixed.

P.S.- I love that pic.

Do you have a picture of the A2W intercooler (engine bay pic), I'm thinking of going with A2W as well? Good looking T2.

Well thanks guys, I do love my FC. I don't have any pics of the A2W all done, just some in progress pics of the install. I'll post them up when I get a chance. My setup uses everything from FrozenBoost.com. It looks kind of Ebay-ish but I plan to do extensive testing to see how well it works.

Thanks! Nope, didn't come with a spoiler. I think maybe it was the S5 TII's that did...but I could be wrong, and I'm sure someone will correct me if I am. :-P
