Whatsup I bought an '87 turbo off of some dude who had put in some work on it. JDM Motor, Walbro 255, 550cc injectors, safc, turbo timer, Boost control (don't use yet, clutch slips), 3" Pipe From turbo to Tail, 3" intercooler piping, HKS BOV. Tokico illuminas, eibachs, tems He sold it to me before he even got the safc tuned.
Right Now I'm putting on an UR Underdrive Crank Pulley( Heard they're the shit and you can feel the gain ) than getting safc tuned. Also getting a ST Rear Sway bar for handling.
Questions: Whats next? What is the next Part I should buy to up HP/ TQ? I'm running stock head gasket :( but engine has only 60,000 can It blow even under stock boost (7psi)?

hmmmm....if that head gasket is stock, w/ stock bolts and torque specs, I wouldn't expect it to last very long, but who knows...;)

So, why did he sell the car, if it had all kinds of money into it...he must have liked the car to put that much work into it, right? Did he give you a reason? Does it exhibit any signs of BHG or RK?

The guy sold to me cause he just bought another MK3 with a T78 on it, that was his new project. Stock head bolts/gasket. No I don't think it's got a BHG, It's pretty quick, all the fluids are cool. Running rich as hell (safc not tuned yet) but it's a supra. So WTF? Is it guaranteed that my HG will blow if I don't replace with ARPs and MHG?
