850R wagons 850 1994

posted by  someone claiming to be mark on  Fri Jul 5 15:57 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I am currently driving a '94 turbo wagon and am thinking of buying an R wagon. Is the R that much better than the turbo? Anything special I should look out for?
Thanks,
Mark

    not much different..as the extra boost is maintained only for 15 sec or so. if u still like ur 94 turbowagon (and it still runs fine), u could try and get some ecu upgrade for a lot less than a used r wagon. there are slight suspension upgrades for the r vs turbo, which can easily be done with replacing the current wagon's suspension with either a r suspension or aftermarket one. same as the 17" tires and wheels.
