what does the 87 turbocoupe have in it ..... limited slip differential ???

Stinger · Dec 8, 2004

it's called a "trac-loc" which means both tires spin all the time...

Pro-Hawk · Dec 8, 2004

Just to be bored...The autos have 3:73 gears and the T-5s ahave 3:55 gears.

what other 2.3T's came with trac loc?

Stinger · Dec 8, 2004

All of them except the carb turbo models...

I never saw this one coming So why did they make these cars a one legger? Sorry I just want to know for a FYI in the future

Because they only had 135hp.
Also, the merkurs had an open rear end.

Will putting Trac Loc into the rear of a N/A kill it? I am not planning on doing it just want to know what the effect will be.

'course not. The effect will be more traction.

More traction equals lower 1/4 mile times!

Not of they don't spin the one legger to begin with...

OIC... I never looked into the older 2.3Ts just much.

Thanks

Stinger, first let me say I respect the hell out of you. But where the hell did you come up with that quote up above. I bought my carb turbo new, and yes its WAS a one legger with 135hp, but I could smoke that one leg at will. Just wondering if you knew that. And now that I have my tracloc with my 3.73's and my water/methanol injection going, I can do it easily now today. Dunno why you would say that.

I dont know about that, I can walk faster than a 2.3 N/A in the quarter even if it has AWD

Stinger · Dec 9, 2004

radartec...I was referring to the "will it kill a n/a rear end" comment above...I wasn't talking about the carb turbo cars.

kiddiccarus · Dec 10, 2004

I always was under the impression that placing trac loc on the N/A would bog it down and would take more Hp to run it. If I am wrong I may look into throwing it in because I will be puting it in for the swap anyways.

Stinger · Dec 10, 2004

Never heard of such a thing...

Thats what I thought also

I was thinking it was like putting a TracLok on my 93'LX 2.3L N/A that has trouble peeling out on Ice

kiddiccarus · Dec 10, 2004

Works for me, I will add it to the list for the t-5 swap
