    85 conversion question

    I've done a fair amount of searching... The standard upgrade path seems to be te44/ta49 + intercooler. That's cool - I've got an intercooler on the way and a line on bigger turbos. My main question would be internal vs external wastegate. Is there a downside to going with an external wastegate...

    Rebuildable Hot Air Turbo Core-84/85

    85 conversion question

    Hi guys, I'm a noob so be gentle.. 85 WH1 that I've inherited, in lots of pieces. The engine is half apart/ half together right now, and the turbo needs a rebuild. I'm trying to decide what to do next. I'm hoping you guys can help. Should I intercool while it is apart? Maybe a turbo...
