that sounds like a great thing, but im not sure which turbo i should be looking for just yet... thats kinda why im here. thank you for your offer, and if you could elaborate a little on your specific turbo, id be that much more greatful and enlightened.

www.turbomustangs.com Ask same question here you may find more reasonable answers.....I'll be subscribing. As stated above a complete kit is the only way to go if it a DD and you dont have another means of transportation. Did you ever own a Honda?

no, i apologize if i come across wrong. it seems as though thats the only answer i get. always. ive already looked into doing a v8 swap and its way too involved to keep the likes of the factory dash & gauges, wiring harnesses, and fuel injection, and carburetion is not an option.
if the car was a 94/95, it would have been done about two months ago, as i had a complete 5L with engine harness ready to go.
so, i figure a cheap and easy alternative would be a turbo kit. the engine is 4 years old, has a custom tune, full exhaust, screamin demon coilpack, ported intakes, bbk 56mm TB, 8mm ford racing wires, fenderwell CAI, full GT suspension, and an 8.8 rear w/ 3.27's...
however, i do know what is a 'rediculous idea' when it comes to my car and the direction im going with it. ive had many v8 ponies, but this is my first turbo ordeal.

basically, i guess i was looking for things like turbomustangs.com... thats awesome and its some sort of direction.
i have looked on ebay for turbo's and turbo kits to no avail. you guys came highly recommended as far as useful knowledge.

i thank you all again for your input.
