ok so i found a 1990 tsi awd guy wants $250 for it it has been sittin for 8 years and when he parked it it ran....it now shows 0 compression on atleast 1 cylinder otherwise the car is in pretty great shape.....i think im gonna buy it instead of trying to swap my 95 opinions?

 

for that price i would buy it no matter what.

 

for real!...

 

Will be a fun project car if thats your kinda thing... drop a race motor in : )

 

well that was my idea buy it no matter what for 250 shiiiiiiiiaaaaaat i can part it out and make money but no i want to probably get it running and drive it and sell my 95 gs its quick but u dont get the cool blow off noises from an NA motor i love turbo cars and AWD too awesome!

 

also is there ne one in south florida that wants to help me? ive done all kinds of work on engines/swaps but not on mitsubishi and having someone that knows the little tricks of the brand would be great

 

theres alot more that you dont get with non turbo just just "cool blowoff noises"
i honestly think thats the reason thatmost cars get a turbo stuck on them.
dont be fooled a stock 1g BOV is barely audible with a completley stock setup.

 

definetly get it. Plus your getting a 6 bolt . Hopefully there isnt too much rust from sitting

 

i know ther is more to a turbo then cool noises im not a newb to that and to the engineer i looked under the car and its good there is like two tiny spots inside the door frames (one on each side) and i think there is some leaky rubber somewhere in the front driver side cause there is water evidence on that carpet alone......other than that its just the engine which should not be a big deal weather i replace it or fix it either way

 

Good luck man. Hope its not a bucket of problems : ).... oh wait, they all are [:@]
