Does anyone know if you can use the CD unit from the Turbo CD with the PC-Engine IFU? The CD unit fits in the unit, but I don't know if it is interchangeable with the PC-Engine version.

Also, I looked in the mod/repair discussion forum, and I didn't see a thread for replacing the caps in an IFU. My guess is that I need to do that, as I'm having audio issues with the audio coming out of it (tried it with my CoreGrafx attached). Does anyone know where I can find this info?

Thanks!

Works fine. Only difference is color.

You can hook up a PAL TurboGrafx on its own or to a Turbo-CD, but it won't work properly.

Oh my goodness, I forgot about this lovely, tortured creature.

Why, Dr. Frankenstein? Why didn't you think of this poor creature's feelings before cobbling it together and giving it life?

Ha ha, I don't think my setup will look quite that bad. Actually, I think the US CD-ROM looks nice next to the CoreGrafx. Maybe when I have the IFU apart to replace the caps, I'll paint it to match.

Speaking of which, thank you for the cap image, gojira!

That's not so bad. At least it's "functional".

This is more like trying to Frankenstein stuff together.






 :P


That photo always gives me a good chuckle. lol

Not my pic. I believe that was taken a few years ago by the late Blake Cheslock (Breetai/Firebomber7). God rest his soul.

Let us not forget Keith Courage's TurboUno



Yeah, but that is *real* (HuCARD, at least).

Everytime I see the TurboUno again I just get super impressed at how awesome it looks.

Anyone know how to resolve the issues I'm having with my IFU?
