Hey guys, heres the thing.

1985 Turbocharged Lebaron, it been given to me as a parts car, i looked under the hood and it has a external waste gate, selanoid and what looks like a intercooler mounted in front of the radiator. Am i correct to assume that this is a turbo, and not a supercharger because of these parts? Can i pilage these parts out of the car and some how use it in the quest to turbo my 1gen pro?

also, is there anything else in it that i could use, like the alternator (maybe its stronger)

thanks in advance.

just incase pics will help.

 

not trying to sound rude or anything...but you can assume its a turbo and not supercharged because it says turbo on it lol....make it a sleeper...get it rebuilt...and make it a badass engine to mess with people

 

ok sitting up doing research, ill need help from you turbo guys now. Assuming i yank the turbo (its a Turbo I Garrett t3) and the intercooler, what kind of work would i be looking at to fit this on my pro? Says it runs at 7-10psi, im sure ill need to buy a new manifold from blt but besides that what else goes into this?

R u joking on this post or something?

 

no im very serious. whats funny about my question? the engine comes from the factory with a t3 on it, can i rip it off and use it on my pro (sounds serious enough to me)
but ok it doesnt matter anymore i suppose, i cant get the turbo off the frikin engine without a cherry picker and i dont have one on me, but, i was being very serious.

 

Well u can see the huge turbo mark engraved on the motor, So why would u think its a supercharged car ?

 

i was just making sure, but i thought it might have been super charged because

1. the car has no boost gauges
2. its auto tranny

sorry sheesh, i know computers not cars, see when it says pro newbie it really means it. I just started reading into cars 4 months or so ago im not that literate yet.

in the computer market just because something says its something doesnt really mean it is, car example, a mustang gtr i once saw.

 

you can get an automatic turbo car...and most turbo cars dont come stock with boost gauges...oh and a mustang gtr = no such thing...people buy stupid badges...damn fools...dont worry bout the question...it just looked kinda weird cause of the big TURBO written on the valve cover...

 

Ah i c . do u have a pic of the intercooler if it has one. Superchargers run off a belt not exhuast gas to spool itself. What kind of pro do u own?...Jon 93 lx

 

Whats your mission? Use the turbo from the 2.2 on your pro?
Or get the 2.2 Boostin nicely?

Damn after seeing that i want a 85 k car. seems they have alot of those in the 11-12 sec range which is crazy must be a good turbo motor ..Jon 93 lx

 

They are very good motors, they just sound like ***.

 

well i wanted to turbo my pro. But that turbo is like on the back side of the engine, so i cant really get it out

 

It probly needs a rebuild anyway. The turbo that is.
