Ever since i drove my dads volvo turbo i was hooked with the feeling when a turbo kicks in. As of now i own an 90 lx 2.3L 5 speed. I see many people make them into a clone SVO and turbo them and can make them quite fast. I have the oppurtunity to buy a 5.0L 302 CI from my brother (he has an 89 5.0 lx that he's going to swap a 351CI into), and am not sure what to do. I like instant power like i'd get from a bigger engine but i really don't look forward to a whole engine swap and redoing a wiring harness where i'd probably carberuate the 5.0... My goal in the end will probably be a twin turbo. I don't know how easy it'd be to twin turbo a carbeurate 5.0 but i know it'd most likely be faster than a twin turbo 2.3 if i do it right. I plan on using it as a weekend driver in the summer time and a few trips to the drag strips every now and then. I hear most people use hx35's for their mustangs but i don't know. I'm not too concerned about turbo lag but when it kicks in i want to feel it lol.
Any idea of what sort of turbos i should be looking at for the 2.3L just let me know! Thank you! And if you know of a cheap turbo set i could buy that'd have everything to install just let me know
