DJ_Lazarek Posted March 30, 2003 Report Share Posted March 30, 2003 What year Conquest or Starion did they come in, I know they came in 86 Conquest's but not all 86's I have seen have them, so did they only come on a few or what??? DJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shift1313 Posted March 31, 2003 Report Share Posted March 31, 2003 the only cars i have seen them on factory were flatbodied conquests. they may have been on widebodies also and it was just a coincidence. I think they were conquest specific though, not starion. There is an 86 flat body quest at the scrapper near me that still had them and he wanted $20 for them and i had to take them off. rip or what.

rjf Posted April 16, 2003 Report Share Posted April 16, 2003 As far as I know all the 86 TSI's had the "TURBO" door handles. I am not sure about the 86 flat bodies, but it seems they would also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kawika Posted April 21, 2003 Report Share Posted April 21, 2003 All the turbo door handles Ive seen were on 86 dodge conquests. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunpackingpoet Posted April 22, 2003 Report Share Posted April 22, 2003 I've got an 86 TSI and it has 'Turbo' on the door handles. It was manufactured in May of 86. In 86 there were to production dates, Jan-May and May-Dec. Maybe the Jan-May got the Turbo and not the others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALANFROMPDX Posted April 25, 2003 Report Share Posted April 25, 2003 My 86 was born on jan 86 and i have them on my TSI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_Venable Posted April 25, 2003 Report Share Posted April 25, 2003 '86 parts car, born January 1986. Still has the Turbo door handles on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinD23 Posted April 30, 2003 Report Share Posted April 30, 2003 I have an 88 with them but I put them on myself.(PITA) I also heard it was the flatbodies that had them as well, but I must say it's a nice touch to the widebodies especially if you have the white lettering on your ride.

IGot6UGot4 Posted May 29, 2003 Report Share Posted May 29, 2003 Just thought I'd add to this, my '86 was manufactured in Dec of '85 and it's got the TURBO handles. Jake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Komeuppance Posted June 30, 2003 Report Share Posted June 30, 2003 I've heard that the Turbo door handles increase power by 5% each. At least that's what all those Honda guys told me... -Robert Oh you know I'm just playin!! (Honda guys would take me seriously though...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bzurc Posted August 23, 2003 Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 from what I could figure out, they started on the conquests only in 84 and continued up until some point in 86. I don't think the starion ever came with them from the factory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyRed88TSI Posted September 14, 2003 Report Share Posted September 14, 2003 My 86 Starion does not have the TURBO door handles. However it does have TURBO written in the rear hatch. Soon to be on my 88 TSI!!! There is a 86 WB Conquest about 15 miles from me that has the TURBO door handles on it. But no TURBO on the hatch. Its for sale but for WAY too much money. It has a bad engine and he wants appox $1000 for it. Plus the interior is trashed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZPI28 Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 My 84 Starion doesnt have them,, but the 84 Plymouth Im looking at does.. Turbo hatches were a Starion item only.. Steven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turboquestDMC Posted June 8, 2004 Report Share Posted June 8, 2004 You can get a pair of TURBO decals for your door handles w/ a 7-10 year lifespan. See Josh_red_88_TSI In the group purchase section. He sells them. I bought a pair, and the quality is pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1stquesTSi Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 personally, i think the TURBO decals are a little cheesy--> . thats just my opinion tho. especially on the hatch. even on the seatbelts it looks wierd. but i guess in the 80's there werent much turbo cars so they made a big deal over it. cuz now if ur car has a turbo its not too much of a big deal unless its an evo or STi. or sum other fast car.

Blk84quest Posted July 10, 2004 Report Share Posted July 10, 2004 if you think having it on the door handles and seat belts is bad you should see the inside of my car. steering wheel, both front seats, door handles, seatbelts, rear hatch. I think thats all of the places but no matter where you look on this car you will most likely see turbo lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jr_ss Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 My red 86 tsi has them.... I also have a starion rear hatch with the turbo in the window. I'm going to put that on if I can get the metal seperated from the glass to put the red metal on.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
