Just picked up my first F body,
99 TA with 76mm precesion turbo still has ac lol.
Got it pretty cheap due to it having a brokem T56.
Thought i'd make an intro thread. Ill snap some pics later.
You guys think it would be cheaper to have the T56 built ( tick ot TDP ) or to put in a turbo 350/400.
I bought the car to have fun with I already have a drag car.

Just had the car tuned by a buddy of mine using EFI Live.
we swapped in some 80lb injectors it made 543 RWHP 565 RWTQ on 10lbs still on pump gas. I was pretty happy with that.
