I own a 1987 5 speed t-coupe. Is it possible to swap computer set up with an 1988, so I would get full boost in all gears? Just thinking out loud.

Just put a boost control valve on it, which, for several reasons is a better way to go. You can get more boost and get it much lower in the rpm range than with the factory computer and BCS.

See http://www.boostvalve.com

You only need two tools in life; WD-40 and Duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should use WD-40. If it moves and it shouldn't, use Duct Tape.

Bypass the BCS.

Cut the lines that go into it and connect them together with a vacuum splice...you'll get full boost in all gears.

Pete,

Is this boost control ok to use on 140,000mi engine. I have rebuilt the top half a few years back, everything new except for ripping apart lower half and turbo, which was in perfect shape at 122,000. Just don't want to f up my daily driver.
