You got me there. This one is a 93. What is yours?Weird. I don’t know if they are seat belt mounts or what, but why does my car have the two round plates underneath toward the middle, and yours doesn’t?

The round brackets are seat belt mounts. It’s difficult to see, but there is a pair of brackets near the bottom of the rear seat pan just forward of where the mufflers sit on the ‘93 that look like they are the seat belt mounts.

Mine is an ‘89. Who woulda thunk they’d be different.
Me either. It should be a pretty simple fix.That is a beautiful car, very nice score. I hope you didn't trade one engine headache for another.

hey now! I said shouldhe says with confidence
I'm worried (for you). 3 popped HG's with only 11psi (allegedly).hey now! I said should
I'm definitely curious as well. I still haven't ruled out removing the turbo either. I've got no problem getting it running reliably NA for a while then trying the forced induction again later.I'm worried (for you). 3 popped HG's with only 11psi (allegedly).
I run 24* total timing at 11psi on 30 year old stock HG's and head bolts with zero issues (credit to Steve).
Hopefully there's no damage to the heads (assuming E7).
I'm curious if the engine has been rebuilt with different pistons that may give a higher CR?
Maybe he's overboosting somehow (datalog would verify)?
or tune is junk?
Just thinking (typing) out loud. I hope for your sake it's simple and your friend just couldn't see the forest through the trees.
What's the least amount of boost you can run on a turbo? Would an "open" waste gate simulate NA or would you still build some boost?I'm definitely curious as well.

Yeah, I had a little bitty spring in the last car that was essentially open WG. But I've seen 3# springs tooWhat's the least amount of boost you can run on a turbo? Would an "open" waste gate simulate NA or would you still build some boost?
