My Ride:
92 Chevy Beretta Turbo 2.3L DOHC

iTrader: (0)
New from Warminster

My buddy told me about this place so I figured I would stop by and check it out.

I have a 92 Chevy Beretta with a 2.3l quad 4 that has been turbocharged.

I purchased the car about 2 years ago with the turbo already installed. It was done as cheaply as possible but it worked. Since I have purchased it I have upgrade many of the parts.

So the far my best 1/4 in the car is a 14.2. I am hoping for better next time at the track since I found the source of my low boost problem.

Thank you for the welcome everyone. I hope to meet some of you guys at the gatherings.

It takes a lot to work on a beretta. Their is almost no aftermarket for it what so ever so a lot of the stuff is custom made or modified from a different car. I love shocking people with how fast the car is though.

Here is a short list of mods:

Turbo out of an 84 thunderbird
hacked together turbo manifold
electromotive SFMU
Greddy BOV
Wiseco pistons
koni's designed for a cavalier
eibachs
SS brakelines
2 stage boost controller (push the button for my horn and it raises my boost to 15lbs)
walbro 255 fuel pump
westach EGT and boost gauge
ported head
55lb injectors
EP LSD

Was all of that already installed when you bought it?

Damn, don't expect that much out of a beretta. True sleeper status minus the fmic.

Everything else is from me. I also redid the charge pipes cause he used radaitor hoses and random piping. Some as small as 1 inch in diameter. Redid the downpipe cause the original was mad of cast iron. I also replaced the rack and a bunch of sensors and wiring that were melting from the turbo.
