I decided to take it easy on my Getrag 272, and I built these turbo deletes this weekend. It will allow me to drive the car N/A for a while, so I don't nuke my transmission right away. Later in the summer I'll put the turbos back on, and have some fun. See how much abuse that 272 can actually handle.






Heres an update. Just started back up on the car this year, started her up, going to change all the fluids (brakes to DOT4), coolant, gas, oil, trans oil. I just finished changing the coolant pipe from my rigged up feature (copper pipe and hoses) to a stainless flex line (the one pipe is 6' long so I have to use two kits). I'm also going to start building up my trans (F23), I bought a crate trans as I said above, and I have another one I'll be picking up in the next couple days for a bellhousing. It'll be taken apart and cryo treated and the new bellhousing installed. I won't be actually swapping it over until fall (id like to drive the car as is for the summer).
I'm also looking at sending out one of my motors to northstar performance which is only an hour and a half from my door, and having it built up a little and studded. That way I can swap it in at the same time as the trans swap in the fall.
I'm also looking at a Lokar throttle cable to replace my slightly short one (annoying), and also getting my ebrake handle moved and operational.
So thats what my year for the fiero has in store! Once I get my new engine and trans installed, I'll be taking it to a dyno tuning shop to get a good base tune for the turbos, and im curious as to how she will do! I'll see about posting a video of the car running, as these super 10 flowmaster mufflers sound outrageous on this car!
