x2. It's almost made me crazy enough to buy a French car--a Citroen with sls on all 4 wheels.

I think he meant that he's not hearing ringing endorsements of any of the SLS delete setups from anyone except the people selling them.

My recollection is that forcedinduction actually did an SLS removal and substitution on his old wagon but I think those pictures have long since been deleted. So when he opposes them, it's not merely theoretical.

That would be what I meant....

“Let's take a drive into the middle of nowhere with a packet of Marlboro lights and talk about our lives.” ― Joseph Heller, Catch-22

Well I found a few engines over the weekend

152K 82-83 turbo engine and trans from a wagon
150k 84 turbo engine and trans from sedan
100k 80 non engine motor from sedan

seems like there are quite a few items to swap over when you do a non turbo to turbo conversion..

radiator, differential, instrument cluster, transmission cross member, exhaust and others

Has anyone put together an inclusive list of parts for a non turbo to turbo conversion?

kind of leaning towards finding a non turbo engine and swapping heads but I will consider a turbo swap if I can find a wrecked turbo wagon

check out this thread post number 14 Using a tandem Power steering/SLS pump in a 123

someome teed into the power steering pump lines....how about going with this setup but improving it with a large power sterring overflow? to provide more fluid than what the power steering pump reservoir can hold?

interesting picture
