Mark this, Mark.


Same engine. Add turbo, fuel enrichment system, wastes gates, etc....


MORE PARTS TO BREAK. Hello?!!???


I own four turbo vehicles out of over a dozen.


More is NOT always better. And yes to answer your question. One of my
Vanagons DOES run better w/o a restrictive paper aircleaner, w/o the AC compressor, &
w/o the PS pump. Is it more comfortable or fun? I will save that for another
day.
