Apologies if this has been covered many times before. I?m experienced with 240s but not with turbo at all.
I can score an ?82 245 manual in colors I love for almost free-it?s got a bad wiring harness and someone took apart the kjet. It?s a very stock NA b21. How much further around my elbow would I be going to try to do a late model EFI +T setup on this? I?m guessing mechanically, it all bolts up, but I?d be missing stuff like crank sensor, incorrect fuel pressure, etc?
Just curious if it?s worth my time to eff with the b21, or if I would be better off cutting my losses for a later setup. In my head the little b21 with the thick rods/cyl walls and 9.3ish compression sounds like it?d be a fun, reliable daily in the 9-10psi range, but as I said, I have zero experience with turbo cars. I?ve had a dozen or so NA.
Thanks!
