1. How hard is it to rebuild a stock turbo? Anything special or level obtained to up the trim level?
2. What does it mean when your engine runs hot? Temp is fine, but massive heat comes from under the hood. -------------------- 91 MR2 Turbo SW20, 92 MR2 Turbo SW20, 95 Celica GT ST204

as long as your gauge is reading good, then you are good. it does seem hot under the hood, but thats the norm.

The thing is it doesn't spool, or you can't hear it, no matter what you set the manual boost too, however the gauge reads all the same during acceleration no matter what (and on these old cars, you can expect the OEM boost gauge to be crap anyways). I was thinking of just taking off the intake just to see what the blade looks like or if it even spins and then go from there. -------------------- 91 MR2 Turbo SW20, 92 MR2 Turbo SW20, 95 Celica GT ST204
