No '89 LPT in Europe either

Is this a 2.0T, Dan? I don't believe the 2.3 was turbocharged until the '91 model year, at least in Europe. If that is the case, then the Aero turbo will be very oversized for the engine and I think all you'll get is more lag. I don't know what the APC system would make of it either. You don't have the option of fitting an Aero control module because all Aeros are Trionic and yours isn't.
The 2.0T is quite a tunable engine, but changing the turbo is not the easiest way to get the extra power. You might want to ask on the Performance board. There are guys there getting over 200hp from 2.0Ts (standard is around 170hp) with quite simple APC tweaks. Only when you want to go over about 220hp would you want to think about changing the turbo.
