Differences Pg02

Changes not included elsewhere include;

A unique grille and headlamp surrounds. The grille has a more open style and a large three diamond badge.
'Turbo' badges on each front fender and on the right hand deck lid.
Functional air outlet ducts in the engine hood extract heat from the engine compartment. A 'drip tray' on the underside of the right hand vent prevents water contact with the turbocharger assembly.
Two tone paint treatments are used having a separation line similar to the Satellite with the combinations of Dove Silver upper with EbonyBlack lower or Impact Red upper and Ebony Black lower.
The front wheel arch inner has been reworked to provide adequate clearance for the larger wheels and tyres.
Light Blue Honey Comb cloth trim will be used on the Dove Silver coloured vehicles with Sandlewood Beige used with the Impact Red body colour. All seats will feature a Turbo badge in the upper centre section of the seat squab.

The Borg Warner five speed manual transmission is standard equipment on the Turbo and as this model uses a rear axle ratio of 3.42:1 (as for 2.6 litre model) a 20 tooth speedometer pinion is needed.

This model uses a constant depression, sidedraft Zenith carburettor with a manual choke. It operates on the principle of varying the effective area of the choke and jet orifice in accordance with the degree of throttle opening, engine speed and engine load.

This model uses an all new exhaust manifold onto which the turbine and wastegate are mounted. An E.G.R. take off elbow also screws into the manifold.
As the turbo charger generates its own level of back pressure the exhaust system itself has been designed with a low back pressure muffler and larger diameter tubing to assist gas flow.

The Montego 15" x 6" JJ wheels, first used on the Peter Wherrett Special, are included in this vehicles specifications. Flutes and cutouts in the wheels are highlighted in grey. Pirelli P6 195-60HR15 tyres are matched to these rims.
While it is not essential that this particular brand of tyre is used for replacement, it is important that a good quality 60 series low aspect ratio tyre is fitted to prevent handling deterioration, tyre fouling and incorrect speedometer readings.
