    To UN TURBO an engine?

    I'm sorry for the slight deviation from this board but it could interest someone. An option is to bypass the turbo on a 2.2 liter Chrysler. I'm thinking it could be done if I replace the module computer for a regular 2.2 L of that year 1986, or would there be a whole host of changes to make?

Both mixture srews are set to HALF turns only for the best performance.<br />Compression is 145lbs on...
