How much faster are the turbos than the n/a's? 200

posted by  someone claiming to be Bob Conolly on  Tue Apr 23 18:58 CST 2002 [RELATED]

What do 162 hp and 181 lb.-ft. of torque feel like in a 242 with a manual trans?
The old '79 242DL that I had with B21F was surprisingly responsive for a 4-banger, and rated at 56 fewer hp than the turbo ic.

Would 0-60 times in the mid 7's be about right for a 2-dr turbo ic?

Worth the extra dough and maintenance costs?
