no prob....

In fact, someone on here had their prototype, but he got into an accident in another car and hasn't been able to work it all out...

If u want, u could probably talk to them and be their first customer as it is now...they'll send u the stuff and everything. You just have to know that yours would be like a prototype i think.

Taken from "The Fiero Boys" :


"Update: If you are using the Garrett T-3 turbo from the Ford 2.3L engine.
The Garrett T-3 Turbocharger as used on the Ford 2.3L engine is built to accept a number of compressor and turbine wheels with different A/R ratios (sizes). These wheels are available in .48, .63 and .83 sizes. For a 2.8L you don't need to change anything. The .63 size ( stock OEM size) will work fine.
For a 3.1 to 3.4L engine, you'll need more air. The .83 size works best on the compressor side and can support over 300 HP. This was the Garrett T-3 wheel that was used on the Turbo Grand Prix 3.1L engine. These wheels can be installed at home or by a turbocharger shop. "


Good info for customs:
