    If I’m not mistaken, the 94 is also the only year to have the 1.8 but still using OBD rather than OBDII, which supposedly makes it easier to slap a turbo in.

    Preferring the slower version is wild, haha. I’ll be moving from a VQ platform so losing ~200HP is going to be an adjustment.

        Interesting! Any idea if it’s uncommon or anything? From what I’d read (which is admittedly not a lot), 95 is when they’d switched to OBDII, but maybe they made the change in the middle of the production cycle?

          I think 96 was the first model year that had it. But the OBD2 mandate took effect in 1995 (for the 96 model year).

          That said I’m not turboing the car and it currently has a check engine light so obd2 would be really nice right now.

          You know, I’m not certain on that. Now I’m gonna have to do some reading! I was just happy it had that combo when I bought it.
