Default escort rs turbo help

Basically iv bought a series 2 rst. its an 88. im just wondering what sort off problems im likely to come across and what to look out for. i hear they arent the most reliable cars lol.

its got i belive a saff cosworth turbo (i think thats a t35 but correct me if im wrong)
a 5 layer fibre head ( again if this doesnt exist tell me its just what the guy said)
dump valve
k and n
and a super chip
turbo timer ( set at a 50 sec down time is this enough??)
and thats all i know off.

he said its running 12-14psi but this sounds a lot (dont know wheather hes a bullshiter or not)


i will be getting it on the roller in the near future so it can be cheaked over.

but is there anything to look out for in the mean time.

cheers
