My son wrecked his 87Turbo 5 speed. Ran like a scalded dog right up till
he crashed it :o)
Picked up an 89Base auto on eBay cheap.
Gutted the 89 & replaced the wiring harness from taillight to headlight, all points inbetween, including APC, turbo fusebox & dash instruments.
This job was tedious and took me a long time. However alls well as she runs like the scalded dog of old...even the cruise works.
Mixing & matching....I was warned against if you want full APC functionality. I am sure a Turbo motor can be made to run in "base boost" but that is a long ways from 12-14psi boosting with APC. If you take the low road, you will I guess get about 1/2 the performance sans APC.
my $0.02.
