About to inherit a 93 900S... Posted by Doug [Email] ![]() ![]() |
I currently drive an 86 900T with about 225k mi. It will soon need a turbo, brakes, master cylinder, clutch and some body work (rot from a previous accident repair). My mom is getting a new car and wants to trade in my car and give me her 93 900S with about 90k mi. I have mixed feelings about this. I'd be really glad to have a car with only 90k on it (vs 225k!) but I love the turbo and am afraid even the 140 hp 16v in hers (20 less than my T) will feel slugglish.
My first question is: is there any cost reasonable way to increase naturally aspirated performance?
Second question: her car has never had any mechanical work done to it aside from brakes and regular maintenance. I'm concerned that everything is going to break as soon as I get ahold of it, particularly the head gasket on the 2.1L. What should I watch out for?
Thanks Folks,
Doug
