Turbo from a Laser?? HELP PLEASE

[Grip72]

There is a 1985 Chrylser Laser Turbo 2.2L car in the paper where i live that needs some work for $700 obo. Is there anyway i could take the turbo from this car and install it in my 1991 Honda Accord LX?? I don't know this kinda stuff so i need your honest opinion!!

You ought to ask this in the Turbo forum.

One of the OT mods will likely move this for you.

buy the laser and mod it, if you want the turbo... they can be had cheaper

[ChrisCantSkate]

700 is just the turbo, you'd need ALOT more stuff, a turbo kit would not only give you a NEW trubo, but everything else you need too

Oh i see...i don't think there is gonna be much mods for a 85 laser tho..ahh f*** it

The 2.2 can actually be modded fairly well. It is the same motor found in the chargers and i have seen them over 250 hp stock. The only weak point of the motor is the headgasket. Stock they are made of cork but they han be upgraded through mopar performance to a high performance one. For a while around my neck of the woods there was an 11 second dodge omni.

Did you mean $700 for the car or just the turbo? If it's just for the turbo that is waaaayyyyyy too expensive! I think that those cars have either the 14b or the T25.... I cant remember. Those turbos are small yet capable of pushing around 14 psi max. Anyway, if you just want the turbo, you can get the same turbo and reconditioned for about $200 at www.cheapturbos.com or from the junkyard for about $75 if you pull it out yourself. I would get a T3 if I was you........
