Re: [DML] How many Island Turbos





There are only 3 different turbo set-ups if you don't count the
occasional (rare) one that an owner may have done a one-of. There is
the Legend set-up with it's distinctive air horn over the mixture
unit. You will probably never see one unless you are in New Jersey or
Long Island (or in pictures). Another turbo set-up was the BAE which
is a single turbo and is easily noticed by the air horn arrangemnent
on the intake manifold. The 3rd and by far most common turbo setup is
Island Turbo or Twin Turbo setup. It is quickly identified by the 4
pipes that go up and down to the turbos. Chances are that yours is the
Island Turbo install. Along with the turbos they did a "package" which
included a 170 MPH speedo. If you post a picture we can confirm it for
sure.
