  • Anyone ever turbo'd a b8

    Hey guys been thinking about doing a b8-t, anyone ever done it? I have a b6t sitting at the house as well but unsure of what condition it's in internally and this b8 just ha a fresh rebuild and runs like a champ! What do you guys think?

    Eurotiva once ran a rear turbo B8

    1988 323 Station Wagon - KLG4 swapped
    1988 323 GT - B6T Powered
    2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor

    1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)

    If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

        I have a b8 that is soon to be boosted. I plan to push the limits, but my main worry is the transmission's limit Lol.
