Hello Forum folks, first post here and have some questions regarding my 89 Mirage Turbo.
I am the original owner and have rebuilt the motor after 275K miles. Upon firing it up my stock turbo froze so off I've been given my motor a full upgrade. 16G EVO III turbo and 02 housing. Full 3" CAT back. 2G exhaust manifold mildly ported. FP intake, 680CC injectors and remapped computer.
Now I'm on to the J-pipe which I cut due to it's interferance with the FP intake. That led me to the BOV which is stock. Should i retain the stock BOV or upgrade? Is there an upgrade path with the J-pipe I should be aware of?
Remember, I have a MIRAGE TURBO 89 vintage so it seems everything I do needs cutting which has been troublesome. I'm looking for an easy way out
Sorry for the newb questions.
