Best replacement would be to try and find a stock turbo for it. Next step up would be a TA49, which is a great turbo, but requires fuel mods to...
Mine was done with EGT/NB/plug reading before WB was widely available but yes - with the low cost of WB nowadays there is no point doing it any...
When I started tuning, I worked up from 45 psi line off fuel pressure and 12 psi boost. Standard street chip with 17ยบ timing for 42.5# injectors....
Do you have a hotwired fuel pump? What is your fuel pressure? What is the chip make + type? Did you do the MAF tap test? No hotwired FP means poor...
I'm on 6 years myself now... parked it in '01 and walked away. Soon, though...
Back to the front! You know, I'm not even sure the new rad is a 3-core.. Does anyone know for sure if the '91 5.7 had a 3-core? Just wanna cover...
You can buy a fan relay harness from www.casperselectronics.com for hot air cars switching to an electric fan using the '87 ECM. It's an...
You should be able to go high 11's on a TA33 with an intercooler. I think I'd want a bit more injector though. If you're going to up the injector,...
Yeah, that's perfect, I would probably be looking to buy the intercooler-TB uppipe and the turbo to engine front pipe. I have a pretty wild IC,...
Re: 1/4 mile times Actually, I was running a Turbotweak street chip. I should have been running a race chip, ported elbow and cooler plugs,...
LC2 is the engine code for the intercooled '86-'87 turbo Buicks. Expect to pay $1500 to $2000 for a good condition complete motor.
Thanks for the info! I had the rear inlet machined off when my intake was getting worked over, it's gone now so the pipe should clear in theory. I...
One question, I am in the process of doing a conversion of my own, I am undecided regarding clocking the turbo forward to go to my FMIC before...
The CFM rating is calculated with the turbo producing 14.7psi of boost (1 BAR). Of course, we overshoot that by a lot, sometimes as much as...
Depends on the condition of the internals... If the crank, rods, and block are good then you're set, just get them reconditioned and machined as...
No, it wasn't. He was running Kenne Bell valvetrain parts with a mild cam. Don't know the details on the injectors or the nitrous charge (pretty sure...
Mid-11's, I believe it was, on only a 75-shot. He's running 8's now with his Stage II... :eek:

I'm helping tune this car and I'm 100% on the spark wiring and set up of the Translator. Switches 1-3 are ON and 4 is OFF, all other settings are set...
