I can't watch the vids at work but I can't wait to see that 89 turbo TA! Those things are awesome. If I had the dough, I'd have one parked right next to my 86.

anything's possible with that 3.8 turbo. Just a great combo especially on the big end with the shape of the TA. I drove my friend's all the time and man from 90-140 was a blink of the eye, he was only chipped and gutted cat.

Love that TTA I wish I had the money also. I would have it like a baby all covered and clean, just treat it like a baby. And if my girl would ask if I love that car more than her, I'll say "hell yeah I do".

he's got alkycontrols meth kit, 62-1 turbo(i think), open cutout and 30psi.

i'm on a stock 5.3 with stock heads,stock cam, open cutout and an ls1 intake on hptuners 11psi

sad thing is his car was even running 100% that night. he had a really bad plug wire and the car was cutting out at full throttle on the 30psi.

add a 3" downpipe most likely and definetly injectors. amazing the kind of torue those turbo 6's make....my brothers GN made 400rwhp/600rwtq with a 44 turbo, front mount built motor and some other stuff. From a dig its insane.
