I have been eyeing this.

For some reason the body style of these I think is cool.

If you need a boost controller, I've made a handful on the lathe. I will give you one, just pay shipping.

Thats the plan!I scored some barely used forged venolias on shot peened T2 rods with arp bolts off ebay for $165 shipped.What turbo ill use is still a decision.It came with a T1 garrett,the stock mitsu thats on it just wont cut it.

Never thought I'd say this about a minivan, but that makes me feel funny. Like when we used to climb the rope in gym class.

Black with a red interior, turbo, added lightness, and a stick shift swap.

In reply to Dusterbd13:

Id love to swap a stick in but the trans are quite rare.My 89 has a 568 and has gone 13.9 and is really mild(IE stock shelby dodge stuff).I think van #2 would be faster with the same mods,auto and I can make it considerably lighter(The brown van is very clean) and I have 3 auto's now.
