I came across this link full of tech articles today while searching yahoo and figured i'd pass it along to you guys. Those scanned pages are just loaded with helpful information and even covered some of the common problems we have here on the board.

That is a really nice site about the 2.3l turbo. Even if it is in an SVO. I like the way he has all of the specs and tech info. Thanks for posting the link for all to see.

Just went through engine swap with a wrecked 1987 Turbocoupe. Going to become a street legal racecar to tinker with. Have a T3 waiting to go in when I get everything ironed out.

I mostly posted it to link you guys up to the articles on the Tiny Avenger buildup. They put just about every mod on that car that we discuss here (k&n on vam, 3" exhaust, adjustable fpr, high-flow fuel pump, intercooler, bigger turbo, timing changes, etc) and even show the power increases for each stage at different levels of boost. Remember that stuttering problem that quite a few people had starting at about 3500rpm? The Tiny Avenger had the same exact problem, and it was corrected by installing a bigger fuel pump. If only we had found the article a few weeks earlier [Image: wink.gif] ....
