RE: 98 Jimmy Turbo using Typhoon parts:
 

Thanks for the e-mail.. I'll send you pic's/details tomorrow.

For 200-250.00 on the Marine intake that's complete on e-bay it's well worth the money.
Tuning is much easier with that intake. I just changed the oil on ours 2days ago and it's ready to roll over 154,000 which is over 14,000mi on the turbo/marine intake. We run 10-11psi with 33lb injectors (stock Typhoon's)

I agree the stock Typhoon turbo is much too small. It's great for 1/8mi and instant responces driving around. This is our beater/dd and I had the old stock turbo from her Typhoon laying around so it costed me nothing.

If you go this route since you've got a 98 you can just use my tune and be damn close to flash and drive.
Just a thought.. :)

You don't have to use that injector.. with HPTuners I can input whatever inj. size you've got and it'll be fine.

With the 4.3 you don't really need all THAT much torque down low... It's already pretty punchy in the bottom end... Peak torque is at 2800 RPM, after all... So something that'll start spooling around 2200 - 2500ish might be a good start...

There's nothing like a 8-10lb boost launch in 4wd. Talk about torque!!!

There's nothing likeleavinga Mustang GTsitting with their jaw on the ground at a light with a 4dr Jimmy with the kids waiving out the windows.
The wife comes home with storys all the time... It's how our dinner talks go :)

Hmmm... I wonder just how much boost the plastic intake manifold will take before it pops :D

Experiment time! lol.

can i convert my 1991 2dr 4wd to sy/ty and body moldings/kit?

UR50SLO 05-05-2009 06:13 AM

Yes..
 
Yes you can do a Typhoon clone if you want to. Hop over to the www.syty.net

But I'm warning you now the cladding is gold... very expensive. There is a guy that makes

fiberglass replacement one's and they are good quality. But again.. expensive!

Good luck,
Scott~

Id say about $6000 for the body kit.
