    The only FD option was 3.77.
    That's not true. There are 3.50FD 543s. I own one. It may have been a 1990-only thing.

    Dont push the red button.You hear me?

    Re: Show Off Your Mini!!

    Here is my 89 Voyager SE. Originally automatic, converted to a523. Bought from original owner in 2012 with 110k miles. Now has 140k miles.

    Engine Stats:
    Refreshed stock 2.5L bottom end. Refurbished stock head (stock valvetrain/cam). NOS Garrett T2 turboBalance shaft case gutted and oil line plugged. Underdrive Pulley

    Airflow Path: Big Spectre Cone filter placed behind grille, 3" piping to ported Garrett T2 turbo, 2.5" intercooler piping to Treadstone TRV1859 intercooler, 2.5" piping to 52mm throttle body, Crazyeye modified 1 piece intake, TU ported exhaust manifold, ported swingvalve to 2.8", 3" downpipe to 3" electric cutout before cat, then stock exhaust.

    Transmission:
    Recently rebuilt 91' 3.50 a523 with diff pin savers, Redline MT90 fluid. T2 Clutch.

    Suspension:
    Polybushings Big swaybars front and rear. Poly control arm bushings. Front spring cut 1 coil. Sensutrac shocks all the way around.



    There is probably some stuff I am forgetting. On the stock computer (at 13psi) with the cutout closed (stock exhaust) it ran a best of 14.7 at 92mph. Will be getting stage 5 computer/+40 injectors/3bar soon.

    Here is it's youtube channel.

    I'd say you have an affinity for those lace wheels.

    Those are FondiMetal wheels, they are a F1 supplier. Very high quality and off of the most expensive Chrysler ever produced(at the time between 89-91). Any guesses which model or why I have lots of spares?

    My Bro and I pulled the drivetrain out of Woody to install the new TVL big valve head, custom 3.8 elbowed one piece IN Mani, FWD Perf ported EX mani, Modded mitsu turbo, AJ built OBX LSD Lock up TC 413 and a few other goodies to prep for MATS in 10 days. Gonna be close...

    ^You may need to add a helper spring on that mitsu wastegate actuator if you want higher boost. When I had a mitsu I ported the bypass hole like that and after my max boost was 16psi I believe. But it looks good .

    You could even be scientific and work out area exposed times pounds per square inch and get a spring that strong... or you know just grab one off a 18PSI rad cap and hope.

    Whiteout is a 90 so it's 5X114, consequently, yes the 15X7 Jeep lace wheels fit. I did cheat and have them stripped and powdercoated. I think we are all impressed how they fill out the wheel wells. STANCED!
