Default Turbo swap on 91 Syclone with pics
We started yesterday and had some trouble but got pretty far today.








New wheels-Enkie






old turbo




Had to take a sawzall to the exhaust here to get it out


We also found that the tranny mount was not bolted in, but only held in by the x member...haha he was pissed.

What else is he doing at the same time? I've always liked those trucks.

I am assuming an injector change and a chip with that bigger turbo.

Not too sure of the specs. He likes the Enkies so for now they are staying. Unless someone cars to donate a set of ZR1's or C6 wheels.
