would be wise to just get a turbo car to start out with...... i have a friend with a 1994 SMG turbo with a gen3 swap... currently has run 11.9 with these mods:
94 turbo, fully loaded, t-tops, etc.
KO SB 50 trim turbo kit
KO TKO 3" exhaust
GReddy intercooler
boost controller to 17.8psi (340whp)
ATS upgraded CV cages
ACT 6 puck clutch kit
borrowed BFG DRs for the 11.9 run.
currently adding:
AEM EMS + full tuning (John Reed)
FJO water/methanol injection kit controlled by the AEM
goal is 11.5 1/4 mile times every time out + overall reliability and driveability.
$17K fully tuned and ready to go with all the above mods.... is many more mods done (springs, struts, etc) which i haven't listed but a 94 with those upgrades for that price is dirt cheap IMO

That's quite a bit more power than I was looking for. I'm thinking in the 225
to 250whp range. I'm just wanting to get the best setup to use for a DD and
possibly some auto-x in that power range. If that's a Gen3 swap, and I can
do it with purchase of the car for around 15k, then great. If, at that power
level, I could do just as well with the Gen2, be as reliable, and probably a
bit cheaper, that's great too. Of course, I guess the ideal situation would
be to find a Gen3 that's already done for that price. I would be interested
in your friend's, but I would never use all that power.
Thanks
