turbo minvan upgrades

[Thunderstruck]

hey all, my turbo minivan only does the quarter in 13.5 seconds. Any help on making it faster? Kinda doggie right now, I want it to be fast. It's the slowest vehicle I own.

OK how is the Neon running quicker than 13.5? Is it being towed by the minivan? If so unhook the trailer and the minivan'll run alot quicker. So whats up with the neon? My wife's is no where near that fast! Neither is my friends 97 Neon. Which he had a 2.4L Stratus engine swapped in. His is about mid 14's

A big blue bottle.

Seriously, the Neon is my wife's so technically I do not own it, not even on the title, however. She has agreed to let me turbo it. Soon as I get my turbovan back on the road, blown turbo oil seal .

That explains the Neon. Too Bad my wife doesn't like Nitrous. I saw an article in Mopar Action (I think) about putting a Conquest TSI Intercooler on a Shadow. Maybe it'll fit on the minivan? Ir it isn't intercooled already? Try that. Should help. If I find which mag it was in. I'll let you know if ya need it.

I would list my wife's and my cars but nobody would believe us!

Nope, no factory intercooler on my turbovan. The conquest intercooler is kinda small. I'm think Volvo or Ford Powerstroke intercooler. B-I-G is better I've decided to replace the weenie mitsu turbo with a spare Garret to "fix" the leaky oil seal. Then I'll need the intercooler.
