hey man the last messages was from 2005 lol. i dunno if anyone still comes on these forums. but anyways i got a 89 ford telstra tx5 2.2 non turbo. i got the engine from a mazda 626 turbo. had to remove the turbo cause i wasnt sure on the laws for p platers. well neways b4 i removed the turbo i was gonna get the engine put in a tx5 body, my mechanic sed if ur putting a turbo engine into a non turbo car u gotta raise the compression nd change wiring and stuff, so decided against it. but now im wanting turbo >.< . so im pretty sure u gotta mod ur normal car a bit so it can handle the turbo hope that helps, im dont really know much about cars but thats what my mechanic told me. private message me if u get anymore info cause i would like to put turbo into my car. or u can send emails to max-flowz-mad@hotmail.com . gooday
