Not a bad car at all. I bet you won't blow the engine but rather the tranny

austin than I'll be two for two, I've blown two engines and one tranny so far, now unless if you count the engine in my buddies truck I'm at three but that was both of his and my'n fault.

its kinda slow but its not too bad for a stock car, its an auto which kinda sucks but it was a good buy, and for whoever asked why I keep buying ugly cars, I like ugly cars. Seriously my first car was an 84 300zx turbo talk about ugly

I highly suggest going over to turbododge.com, boostedmopar.com, or ------------.com for any help or modifications to your new ride. I personally have had 3 turbo dodge vehicles and loved them.

First thing to do with that car is to ditch that tiny damn mitsubishi TE04H turbo and get a garrett on that manifold. Then, get rid of the stock intake piping and put a huge intercooler in the front of that thing. Next, open up the exhaust with a 3" swingvalve assembly, down pipe and exhaust, with either no muffer or a magnaflow muffler. After all is said and done, get a custom calibration from ---------------.com or try your luck with D-Cal or Chem software and make your own calibrations. Then crank the boost like no others.

Believe it or not, early dodge turbo motors are really stout and can handle insane amounts of boost. Right now Stephane, oner of a charger from SMP in Canada, is running 9's in the quarter mile. So power is definately attainable. Good luck and beautiful car.

If you ever have a headgasket failure, get a Mopar Performance unit. All of the high boost turbo dodge's are using them with bearly any failures.

The only problem he might have with this trans will be if he does many peg-legged burnouts and popps the differential pin through the case. The 3 speed autos in these things are bulletproof beside that damn differential. Differential pin savers are a recommend item when you do any work on these transmissions.

Clean 88 es man!

I have a white 88 es, it was a stick car stock but im swapping in a auto... all the fast TD guys run them. The motor is out and currently all over the shop. Its getting some more go fast parts and some arp goodies. The plan as off now is to push 25-30psi out of a s60 turbo, and then spray it. Shooting for 11's on a stock bottom end!

I have a 89 CSX to (shelby shadow) and it has the normal Garret/3inch/18psi and shouldnt have problrems running 13's when the track opens. On slicks of course.
