Hi Otis,

What mods have you done to the motor as it stands, and what new parts are going into it?

Biggest thing to do is determine your budget. With enough cash this could be a 500+ turbo monster...

OnIf you want to stay mostly stock - you can get a custom T3/T4 turbo built from the existing turbo, some larger injectors, and a 3 bar fuel regulator will have you seeing close to 260 - 280 HP.

OnDepending on how custom you want to go, and what your fabrication skills you have, or are willing to pay for - it can go up from there.

OnOnThere's been lots of discussion of these motors on 505turbo.com - so I'd check that out first to see what's been discussed.

  I have a 1985 505 Turbo sedan with the engine ready to assemble. I   want to ask the pros what Performance mods are available. I want to   upgrade the turbo for more boost. How much boost can these engines   take before it grenades?
