You've never heard of the USCS referred to as that? It's a joke.

What kind of power did those 2.0 Turbos make? I know they'd hoped to put those into the Fieros originally, but it never happened.
Did you end up getting the seats? |

Google says 165hp and 175tq.
No, I didn't grab the seats. No room and no desire. I already have 987 seats.

While that speedometer/boost gauge really looks cool, and will fit well; I believe a separate stand alone vacuum/boost gauge with a wider 360* scale will provide finer and more accurate readings. A Steward Warner vacuum/boost unit mounted on the left side of the gauge console works here. ------------------

I can see why the engineers wanted it in the 84 Fiero on release... how cool would that little motor have been in the Fiero? It's 25 more hp over the Fiero's V6 in stock form... it probably would have run mid 14s all day long. I wonder what the fuel economy was?
Hmm, it says 18/28: https://www.fueleconomy.gov...o?action=sbs&id=4495
Not horrible. Oh well. Would you be willing to share the information for this junkyard? Will they ship a motor? I might just buy the motor to save it...
Thanks!

No, never... plus I had to look up USCS.

That it is! 
However, there are probably several guys in P&R who'd feel that term reflected their beliefs.

Those are the same clusters used in the GMC Syclone and Typhoon trucks.

A few years ago, a Turbo Sunbird GT showed up at the PNP where I live. I did not grab the boost gauge as the instrument cluster had major cracks in the bezel / faceplate and being it was a convertible and the top down, it had been in the weather. Here are two pics of it….
