    Well I'm getting more serious by the day with selling my GT and getting an 89-93 LX coupe 5spd. and tossing a turbo setup in it. Right now I have planned to get a SS header with a divorced WG setup, running a tial 38MM WG, a T3/T04E turbo(50 trim .63), 21x9x3 FMIC, ProM univer MAF, and 42lb inj. , adj, fpr, 255lph pump,I plan to tune it with a dual program chip one for street boost, the other for high boost and race gas. This is almost to good to believe, from my research I have found that I will have a car much faster than my GT for wayyy less. I figure 300HP would be easy money with this setup, more with the race tune and more boost. Is there anything I could be overlooking in this combo? so far? I haven't dug into the cams yet but I know they're there and would like to hear what you all think as far as they go...So who's gonna trade me their coupe?lol

    don't forget to work the head over. A good port job is a must.

    On the head I will probably port it myself. I was looking to just add some volume and clean up the intake side and really focus on velocity in the exhaust. I'll probably just do minor CC work and polish the **** out of the CCs. It looks like I will be using a DIS/DP head, as these cars sem to be in better shape around here. Anyone know of anyone running a TWEECER on a 2.3 w/o the SVO/TC comp?
