Seems a bit excessive
This is in a Merkur XR4Ti. For those that don't know, its the US equivilant of the European Escort (totally different than ours). They were sold here for a few years with the Turbo 2.3 motor but never did well due to poor marketing. They are about 2900 lbs stock and have an IRS rear suspension.
Here are the specs:
R Block based 331 stroker short block
AFR 185 heads
RPM II intake
Lunati cam (came with the short block)
T04R turbo
Home made headers with Tail wastegate
No intercooler for now and 5psi spring in wastegate
T56 transmission with Viper gearset
GMC Syclone AWD transfer
Astrovan front diff with 4:10 gears
8.8 rear diff with 4:10 gears and torsen
99 Mustang Cobra brakes
Here's a basic web site with some pics.
