Hey all just thought I'd share pics of my buddy's ride. He has owned several 2nd Gens over the years but this is his number 1 out of all of them. He bought this one back in 89. The original motor was ported and polished, chipped and supercharged. He pulled that motor (its just sitting in his garage) and went turbo. He bought a complete Turbo II swap with upgraded turbo for $1200. The swap came with 650 injectors, racing clutch & flywheel, turbo timer & BOV. He had the new motor ported and polished, added 3mm apex seals, ecu upgraded, added a larger intercooler, added 850cc injectors (secondary), wideband O2 sensor and several other parts. I have been waiting for months to visit him in NC and go for a ride. Well today I got my chance. Only thing I can say is holly shi+++++++++. On just 10psi it pins you in the seat. The car is not even tuned yet but he is controlling everything with a SAFC for now. His injectors are not large enough so he plans on moving the 850's to primary position and adding 1600cc injectors as secondary. He is also considering running Haltec. When it is all said an done he will turn the boost up to 15psi for daily driving. The turbo is good for 30psi. He has several impressive toys to include an 850R Volvo running 13.5psi via a turbonectics turbo and a 1100 Ninja that dynoed at 178 rear wheel hp and runs a mid to low 9 in the 1/4 before he recently added a 50 shot of NOS.

I should have taken a better pic of the seats that I did for him several years ago. I may do my car someday.

Tell me about it. He said the bike scares him when the NOS kicks in.
