CHECK OUT THE IOWA PROBE OWNERS CLUB

okay heres the story, i found this car on ebay, picked it up for $1300 but i had to go to detroit to get it. the car has a long list of add-ons i'll list later. we got there the car ran fine, body "looked" pretty good, all was well so i put it on the trailer and we pulled it home.... 24 1/2 hours non stop except for food and gas. we get it home and go to start it to get it off the trailer.... nothing, just cranks. we pushed it in the garage and a month later after doing the hei mod, a blaster2 coil and a cps we got it running. but it still idled at 2k like when i bought it. after finding a vac leak and a leakie cai it idles fine. on thanksgining day i was giving a buddy a ride and the spidergears blew to pices. so now the car is in the process of getting the entire body kit re-done and remolded. it was held on with bondo!!! and i decided i'm gonna turbo it. so now it's on jackstands with half a the turbo kit on it and the body all looking like hell. but it's all leading up to a fabulous ending.... stay in touch for updates.....

this is what it looked like when i got it.

hey man i picked up a probe gt with the stock american motor (forget if its the klde or kl03) and am planning a doing a motor swap and turboing it. i bought the turbo kit, and am wondering wut motor i should swap it with, either the same motor because its 9.5/1 compression ratio or a KLZE which is a 10/1 comp ratio. would a turbo blow the KLZE? hows you do it??? thanks man

i noticed ur intake sits low down near the bottm of the engine my brothers probe suffered from hydro lock and stoped working due to flash flooding in the area just thought i should tell ya that if you use a 4" x 9.5" x 3" pipe you can have it sit on top of the motor
