So are we to expect some videos of this thing blowing sideways in the snow?

No, you should expect to see vids of it blowing sideways on dry pavement  :noel:

I'll hold you to this.

OK, I know I'm not the only one on here, what is a EGT in this context?

I have always hated the look of this body style, but seeing somebody doing a AWD conversion with boost peaks my interests.

So post more of this build up and do work:noel:

These things are sweet, my girl had one for a few years. Light and quick just stock with an intake and an exhaust leak.. Handle awesome, of course we had a brand new set of kum-hos on it when we got it, still, only a few pounds heavier than a honda hatch, and the stock motor will handle boost like a motherfucker.

Escort GT

.......and specifically speaking, the 91-95 escort gt's with the Mazda DOHC 1.8 BP. You remember my black one I wrecked that had the Holset right?

Yeah I remember it.  :noel:

I know we have one in charlotte which is about an hour away, I'm sure Joseph knows of a couple other in the general area as well. I know he mentioned one that wasn't too far away, have to ask him for specifics.

This is something I havent seen before. Watch that rear diff. If you blow it up you'll never find another. The rnp is an odd ratio and hard to get.

Especially when a stock EGT only tips the scales at like 2345 or somewhere in there. Add in AWD stuff probably still be around 2500. Thing is gonna be sick. :noel:
