Contents
Background:
History:
Model Predecessor
The first of this body was the Aries K
Model Successor
In Mexico the car came intercooled and had an optional Recaro racing seat option. In Mexico this car was called the Magnum.
All K cars are related, the L bodys and the mini vans are the only "different" plat forms.
Competition
They have popular to drag race for low weight reasons and dirt cheap turbo engines.
Body Styles
2 door post, 4 door post, 2 door convertible, 4 door wagon
Technical:
This was the first of a long wonderful line of Mopar electronics. From the 84 turbo cars on all of the cars to date don't require a scanner to get fault codes. Just turn the key on and off 3 times and leave it on the third. If there is a leaky hose, bad connection or a bad sensor the blinks out the code on the power loss light or the check engine light. A true Mopar plus.
Class
The car is a mid size class car
Platform
K platform
Engines
146 HP turbo charged all American 2.2. The 2.2 was ready for production in the 70s. Problem was the 2.2 was to be built in the factory where the big block Mopars were built. So Chrysler subbed out a 1.6 with VW for the first couple years. Then when the big blocks were out the 2.2 started production in the US. The 2.2 was in production from 1981 till 2003. The T2 and 2.5 turbo engines are built heavy enough for 450 WHP. The 84-85 Turbo is good for 400 WHP. The weak engines are the 86-92 T1 2.2 turbos, they have weak rods and don't like past 250 WHP. With forged pistons the turbo Dodge people really don't know where they fail. Stock rods and crank are past 500 WHP with no problems.
Transmissions
The torqueflight A413 3 speed. They need mods to hold up to big power and the posi for them is pricy. The 5 speed Getrag trans are near bullit proof, much better than the Neon trans that came later.
Specifications:
Length, width, height, wheelbase
Year by Year Changes, Production Numbers, and Cost:
1986
The rarest is the Copo Military issue turbo Reliant K wagon. Built for a military contract there are only 40 made and they were not sold to the public. To get one you had to wait till the military finished with it and auctioned it. I have one of 3 known to exist, they can be noticed by the turbo hood that looks like the GLH turbo hood with one side vent.
