unless you have updated to the 88+ water cooled turbo and installed the requisite lines.
I purchased a customized Mitsubishi TE05 from turbochargers.com. It was a SAAB turbo before they modified it, so it was obviously going to bolt right in when. They did awesome work, installing a 16G compressor wheel (stock is a size 12 wheel) and a 360 degree thrust bearing. So far it has been an incredible improvement, nimbly handing 25 psi+.
As Vince suggests, the T3-60 from SPG9 is a direct bolt in, and a good turbo. I'm not sure if they can upgrade it for you, but you might want a ball bearing center section or the thrust bearing mod for longevity's sake.
