that will make a pretty decent little driver then,
I am guessing from your name it will be a 5 speed?
You gonna intercool it and run a little more boost?
Thats what I would do

It's a 5 speed A520 from the factory. Here's a pic

Yes, it will get converted over to a T II once I get everything situated, it's just that 2.5 L Turbo I's are more easier to come by. I almost purchased a 2.5 L Turbo I last month but I had to postpone it due to expenses, oh well I can do the cheaper stuff for the conversion (such as the 255lph fuel pump) while waiting.

lol it isn't a turbo yet you put the badges on...it better not be like that for long or someone might mistake you for a ricer man!!!!

like the honda/acura guys that order their type R and Vtec badges/stickers in the mail :P

Hehe, I know I am false flagging. I was so confident that day about getting the 2.5 L Turbo I engine that I went ahead and put on the badges and then my plan was postponed. Since they are jb welded up there I just went ahead and left them on since I did not want to damage them taking them off. It's going to be a turbo eventually anyway. Trust me, I am no ricer. :P I have done all of the repairs even some of the alignment myself.

ok then... JB Weld... lol

I personally would not have put the badges on at all. I would let them think it was still N/A and leave them wondering about it in my rearview...

I doubt any average person would take a Dodge Aries with fading paint as a fire breathing pavement pounder (badges or not) lol. It would be sleeper in itself.

I personally think the turbo badges on my lebaron make people wonder even more lmao!
It leaves them with something to tell their buddies that a turbo lebaron convertible beat them and then their buddies will laugh at them for making excuses

my leabaron doesnt have badges, just silk-screened letters on the side moulding, says turbo. when i brought the car home and washed it , the lettering on the drivers side came off. so if im in the left lane , nobody knows till they hear the blow off valve.... i m gonna remove the other side as well. i prefer stealth.

speaking of movies- ever seen The Wraith? bunch of old turbo dodges in there. and i believe that Black Moon Rising also has a shelby in it, with V8 engine noise dubbed over the normal sound of the engine.
