mods that were rendered usefull on my 88 9000t:
Complete Volvo fuel injection which is dyno proven to be ok for 300hp with a fuel chip.
BSR 3 inch full exhaust including DP
t3/t4 turbo w/ 360degree thrust bearing.... at 22psi peak
tuned apc for hte boost
manual boost control
ported 2.3lhead
MSD6BTM
water injection
bigger IC
Hyperboost HX diverter valve
so far the above were bought on a tight dime, all used or done by me;-)
koni shocks
jamex springs (bought used), bushings, poly trans bush
17 inch HRE 3piece wheels, bought used
lets not forget rebuilt cylinderhead, new rad, crank pulley, water pump, trans, timing stuff etc etc
over the years I've done a lot to my daily driver. the paint is original and exceptional, no rust. I've put on 1991 fender flares, lots of nice gauges inside, classy momo wheel, DDC trip computer. Interior is about a 8 out of 10, overal about a 7.5.
now that I wrote this I realise how 'cheap' I am, I think I bought everything (well the bolt ons) used, with exception to the vital engine parts!
I can still get buy by going 4-6 months with just adding gas, oil, etc...can't say that for a $500car payment.
but like everything, it WILL come to a head someday when it will have to be pulled off the road, at least as a daily driver
Best used investment: complete set of factory manuals. I have not spent a dime in a LONG time4 on repairs.
