gen1 or 2?

[munkee]

Would there be much of a difference turbocharging a gen 1 as opposed to a gen 2? As far as electronics and fuel delivery? Or are you pretty much just choosing body and interior styles?

I've seen Toolman say before that an '89 would be the easiest to turbocharge. No ABS computer under the hood.. I believe that both Gens are pretty identical in most aspects, though.

Neither, The gen 3 would be the easiest to Turbocharge...

Gen II has a little stiffer body and has a little more room behind the bumper for goodies. They're also a little quicker to begin with.

I heard the 89 and 92 were of the fastest. Least amount of options for less weight

That's debatable. There's more later models putting up faster stock times. Probably because of the hotter tune and different intake.

Find me someone in CO that knows how to weld and fab and I will show you a TT Gen 3 MTX. Until then. I keep my mouth shut.

Seriously though. I am wanting to talk to anyone who is really good at fabrication.

Also if you have a green gen II, it's a little faster than the rest from the factory.

I also agree with this theory

Maybe, but I don't have a gen 3 yet.

89's should be quicker; no abs, no airbags, no sunroof, no rod shifter, no subwoofer, no CD player; lighter = faster and better handling/braking.....and more of a stealth appearance so less cop magnet effect too.

 

[NJSHO]

Gen 1's are better at everything.

 

[BlackonBlack89]

Gen 1's are better at everything.

but 89's are the best at everything

 

[munkee]

Hmmm, a green 89 with a plus hood and a 91 interior. I would rather keep the airbags though, if not the abs.

 

[shomesomesho]

but 89's are the best at everything

Especially black '89's..with a 3.2L..and a Quaifieee..

 

[CerberuS]

but 89's are the best at everything

Cept for the dash/cluster.

 

[NotSoSlowSHO]

but 89's are the best at everything

And I have TWO!

And who cares about the cluster.... Ive got my eyes on the road

 

[ycode90]

Gen 1's rule all SHO's !
