Weight loss Tip of the Day for SW20 Turbo

Post by darcy »

Not sure if this has been pointed out before, but I have just weighed a Rev 1 NA starter motor from a 3SGE- it is 0.9Kg lighter than its Tubby counterpart. Direct replacement wrt bolts and terminals, and should work OK.

do u not think there's a reason for it being a lot more substantial on the turbo model... i.e a lot more compression...

The compression on the turbo is lower than the NA.
