>1. Would replacing the exhaust with a performance exhaust give me that much >more HP? Is it a bad idea to modify the exhaust? Putting in a free flowing and bigger bore exhaust will definitely increase the HP at a reasonable cost. May no be enough, though. > >2. If I replace the engine, can I replace it with a 16-valve turbo? If so, >what year of engine would fit? Anyone have any idea as to cost? I know the hood on the 16V is different from the 8V. You might check and be sure there are no other modifications that would be needed to swap engines before you start that. My suggestion is to find a suitable 16V turbo replacement. Charles.
