1986 turbocoupe, which is my daily driver. It has a freshly rebuilt motor with 3,000 miles on it. The rest of the car has under 100,000 miles. As far as exterior goes, its pretty solid besides around the rear window but the floors and doors are solid. The interior is very clean and needs a little tlc. As far as upgrades it has a larger vam, cone filter, boost controller, hurst short throw, 2.5 inch exhaust with no cat and flowmaster ler, gauges, dual electric fans and 2:73s since i daily drive the car. I may be forgetting some things. The car has welds wheels, skinnys in front and fattys in rear, all 4 rims have new tires. As far as the bad, the turbo seals are bad but i have a brand new t3/t4 turbo that is included also along with many extras. Clean title
1988 turbocoupe, which i was going to fix the frame rail and strut tower rot to make it as my daily driver but then decided to swap the suspension and abs and rear and brakes all over to my car and never did. The complete nose is off car and some of the engine is apart cause i was going to fix the rot but never did. I drove the car home and tore it aprat. It has a clean title. The car has no front seats since i started to part out but then stopped parting it out

1986 turbocoupe, 4cylinder turbo motor with a 5speed. The car has a new rebuilt motor with about 1600 miles on it. The tranny is in good shape and doesnt grind at all and it has 3:55 gears. The car itself only has about 98,000miles on it. Car is in good shape, it needs some help around the back windshiel but that its. Floors are solid and everything. As far as mods go, it has an intake, bigger vam, 15lbs of boost, exhaust that needs to be redone, hurst short throw shifter, the 87-88 tc hood with vents, no a/c but can include it for additional price. The car has welds on it with 15x8s in the back with new tires and 15x3.5s in the front with brand new tires. Car runs great and drives great. It also has a dual gauge pod pillar and it holds a mechanical oil pressure gauge that works and a water temp that needs to be hooked up. It also has a boost gauge in the car that works great. It has cloth interior which is in real nice shape and dash is in good condition. It also has a boost controller. Looking to trade for a foxbody mustang. I also have a custom 5inch cowl hood thats included to the sale. The battery is in the trunk also.
Will get updated pics today, the back of the car sits higher with the correct springs.
So i wanna do a cowl hood on my 86 tc. I just want to see pics of tcs with cowl hoods so i can show my dad also so i can get one. If anybody has any pics please post them up. thanks
So i hooked it up and it washiznitting 10-12lbs. I turned my gillis boost controller up 3 more turns and still reading 10-12lbs. I hooked it up to the factory hose.
Ok, so i wanted to install my temp and oil gauge so i took of the upper intake and throttle body. I did the gauges and put it all back together and you have to hold te gas pedal down al the way and try to get it to idle and then it revs high and comes back down to 1200rpm. i adjusted the idle screw and it just stays at 1200 when it should be like 800rpm. Everything is tight and the way it should be. I just dont understand. thanks
I installed my gillis boost controller. I have it set at like 13lbs and i can feel a big differnece from the factory setting. It came with great instructions and had it done in 20 mins. The only thing i dont like was the mounting bracket it came with, the boost controller still isnt that tight and moves around so im going to make my own bracket and thats it. Tomorow im installing my autometer boost gauge so i know how much boost im exactly running and a few other things. Will post pics up tomorow once i clean her up.
I dont have a drag strip by me so it would be hard for me to bring my car to the track. I never had any track time experience except for alot of street use. I just wnat to know what my car would run with a good driver at the track with the following mods.. thanks
