85 900T...here's what i did...fitted 1992 2.1 head/intake UNmodified to a 2.0l block with high compression pistons. Result...MUCH more lower down torque...no more bogging while the turbo spools. Seat of the pants suggests about 190-195bhp and it still does 28mpg. Also added 25# injectors and a 3.0fpr. All standard items. I used the orig. T3 turbo and the APC lets it boost to about 10psi..it does not knock.
To me this rebuild made the most sense to give me a spirited daily driver with no major mods. Having more power where you drive most of the time made most sense too...but I'm 43 and don't redline the engine anymore!!!
