Dexter:
I have always liked that 2.0L engine; it is solid. We have a 88 9KT (no DI) that we have been upgrading for the last few months or so. While there may be some electric management differences between 88 and 89 you should be able to get that engine to perform very well.
A few of the things we did were 1) N/A 2.3L intake manifold 2) a T2.5 turbo--spools up quickly but runs out of breath sooner than the larger T3 or TD04 (Aero) 3) APC mods. Everything else is pretty much stock. A few more mods are currently planned or in the works. I must say that I think the thing that made the car "jump" out better of the line was the intake manifold and the smaller turbo; the car accelerates very well. I hope that helps.
