-SPG9 stage 2 APC
-SPG9 Rising Rate Fuel Pressure Regulator
-oversized, balanced fuel injectors
-K&N cylindrical filtre
-2.5inch exhaust from down pipe, no cat, 2 dynomax race mufflers (lowest rumble I've heard in a 2.0L turbo with a sport exhaust, and a DEEP growl, but not that loud)
-ported and polished cylinderhead
-port-matched ceramic manifold
-big bore throttle body
-insulated intercooler pipes
-MSD BTM (ajustable ignition retard), blaster 2 coil, 8.5mm super conductor wires
-High Press. wastegate actuator
-HD clutch
-13 year old 17inch HRE 3piece billet and forged wheels, (built to order for the '88) Yoko AVS AV1-45i 215/45 tires, worn bare;-)
-Jamex springs (1.25 inch drop I think)
-Koni Sport adjustable shocks
-polyurethane bushings on front sway bar (the fact is I need bigger sway bars!)
-I may have A Euro ECU, as this car was a German import (need to confirm serial #, anyone have this?)
-NGK BCP7EV spark plugs, Mobil 1 oil, MANN filters (large Volvo ones), AMSOIL 75W90 series 2000 gear oil (saving grace).

Right now the turbo is producing 24psi past 5000RPM, 22psi past that. there is no boost limit in any gear. My timing is set at 22 degrees BTDC and I have set my ignition retard (defeated the stock system) set for .45 or so degrees retard per psi of boost...a linear map which is very nice. This is on 92 octane Chevron gas, but I usually use 94 and adjust ignition retard accordingly. With this timing setup I have the RRFPR set at 3.0bar, and the AMM set at 460ohm. I wouldn't suggest doing this unless you have a good idea on what the Air/fuel mixture is under all conditions (I do).

I have gone through 2 sets of hydraulic motor mounts in the last 2 years, and now I have the solid rubber mounts, which also may be on the way out by summer. I heard Swedish Dynamics has modified some 9Kt mounts, which I should check into!

This car really moves,,,,

PS I'll post acceleration times if I can find them.....
