How do 2.3T's perform off road in their stock or very mildly modified condition? I know they have higher hp and torque than my 2.9, but at about 1000 rpm higher. A friend of mine offered to give me his 83 turbocoupe in exchange for a drumset. I kind of wanted to do a 4.0 swap, but this route could be fun too, and a little more different. But i am also puttion on a 6" lift and 33s in the next couple of weeks and i plan on using the truck for some mild to moderate wheelin this summer, so maybe a v6 is still the way to go for me?
anyways, just wanted to get some opinions.... i know theres a lot of people who say turbo anything and everything, but i'd like to know really if a 2.3t is feasable for off roading.
thanks!
