Does anyone know what the difference is between a fwd turbo transmission and a FWD N/t trandmission? I know there is a difference between the 1.8lr tranny but anyway, I tried to buy a clutch that said it was for a FWD tranny and it was too small i'm wondering if there is any difference between the Turbo and the non turbo models because I just put a turbo on my ES-i and i'm thinking that maybe a turbo clutch would have a little bit more biting power.. i'm not sure though if the transmission is bigger or if the flywheel is bigger on the turbo model..
thanks
 
The turbo flywheel is bigger. You have to get a nonturbo clutch unless you want to swap out your flywheel and transmission just to run a turbo clutch.

Is this a 1 or 2G, cuz in my 92 n/t car right now I have a 91 turbo engine 90 turbo trans. and 92 7bolt axles. I did it all myself and know these are the parts in it, so how is it working if the axles are the wrong size? Are the ends the same size with different size shafts?
 
then the cv shaft i got form sturdevants must be a little aftermarket. cuz when we were rebuilding my motor and had the trans and shafts out, i laid them next to n/t ones and mine were bigger :confused:
