== Final Information == There are always a few things that usually are asked when doing this type of swap, I will try to answer them here. * Will This hurt my Non turbo Motor? Short answer No, as long as you keep boost to reasonable levels with the setup you do you should not have any issues. * How much horsepower will I make? This will all vary on how you complete the installation. Stock turbo cars made "200hp" at the crank but with the added compression of the NA motor you will likely see more gains especially in the lower RPM band. * How much boost can I run? Again this will depend on your setup. If you use all the stock plumbing and no intercooler I would not run more than the stock boost level of 8psi on the T3 turbo as this is where the stock wastegate is sprung for. Adding a boost controller is not recommended unless you add an intercooler and then 15psi would be about max on the stock T3 unit. * Will My Car be legal? As long as you build the car to meet your local emissions laws you wouldn't have any issues with being legal. Remember these cars all fall under the classic car status so many places do not require emissions any more. * Can I run AC and install a intercooler? this all depends on if you can fabricate. If so you can route the plumbing out of the way of the AC compressor and have the best of both worlds Like the Spearco Intercooler system was designed.
