What was that, Mr slow 240? It'll be faster than your Nissan by February. So take it in the ass. :razz2:

are you sure they were the same engine? casue it's a 2.6 in the starquest, and the same motor in the minivan's i thought was non turbo carbed. what i would do is get a starquest engine, transplant it in a N/A van version, and just hook up the starquest ecu, you could have tons of power easy.

So have you already found one for sale?

Found one for sale, and told the guy I intend to buy by the end of next week. (Which will almost definitely happen)
And the Turbo van's are 2.5 turbo, so I don't know that it is a Starquest motor. It does use a mitsu turbo, however.

Okay guys, I made it back. And now I have 2 turbo vans. God was last night an adventure...
I bought the first one up in St Bonifacius (near Chaska) and brought that home. Had an ignition problem for a few minutes with it, so I thought I'd go down to Austin and test drive one they had at a dealership. Stupidly I drove the van down instead of my bro's honda (he was with me). End up buying that one, and intended to return the original, but then the dealership's one died on me on the way back (alternator) So we go BACK to Austin, stay at a shitty motel, have more problems with the left over van, and go back to the dealership in the morning. They gave me half my money back and a new battery to make it home on that one. So now I'm back in town with two half-working vans.
I think I'm going to use one as a parts van in case something goes on the one I'm driving. Otherwise, I might fix them both up and sell one. So if you know anyone looking for one, let me know. I may be willing to part with one.

Yay for turbos...

all TrboVan did to get his to run a 14.8 was unplug the pressure signal line on the wastegate.
