Default looking for 89 tx5 info

Where can i find information about the differences between the 89 2.2NA and the 2.2Turbo TX5's
Im looking to convert a NA model to turbo, but not sure what i can keep/ditch.
Also information about the gearboxes will be good, thanks.

Default try here

tx5 australia club
lots of info

this forum covers only the tx5 it is free to join

most parts are bolt on but an understanding of how the turbo works and tuning would be helpful

as for gearboxes a limited slip diff and stronger cvs would be advised
and better brakes if possible
