1989 turbocharged chrysler lebaron 2.2 back to life--GOTSPL--

its the phantom. Been down for 11 months and its back ---Runs 14-15psi fwd i snapped in the middle of racing the front bracebar that attaches to the trans mount with the engine torge.it was originally welded so we drilled 6-3/4" bolts through the frame and it holds. then shortly afterwards the steering collum snapped in half while racing so it took us 11 months to figure out how to replace it with another model lebaron which doesnt come with blinkers or the right harness on the collum.When we cut off the other harness it effected the brake lights so were trying to fix it.

Get a proper paper air filter and housing to increase your BHP and *PROTECT* the turbo. A paper filter is way oversized and up to 15 times greater in surface area, so the one you have has massive holes and allows dirt and dust a paper filter would remove to damage the turbo. It causes pitting as it is like sandblasting the engine! It's a common mistake gullible boy racers make, they believe adverts that are misleading and hand over their money. Noise doesn't mean power, it means RESTRICTION!

Huh. Pretty sweet van engine you got there mate.

1989 2.5 liter Turbo I with the SMEC engine management. Mitsubishi turbo blowing straight into a 1-piece TII style intake manifold. Has balance shafts stock, as well as really short-skirted pistons to get 2.5 liters out of the Common Block. Cast crank, forged rods, Mahle cast aluminum pistons. Really strong motor, will take a lot of boost.

That A413 automatic transaxle is prolly your weak link. They need heavy mods to take 250+ horsepower.
