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.

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.
