Incon seems to be slowly going the way of the Dodo. There kits are good and well thought out, but many people dislike cutting up their cars and nearly inaccessible spark plugs (and their past problems of the turbos in the base kits spinning their all by about 450hp...this may have been changed though). They're a spin off of the now-defunct DDMI kits which did great as far as getting the turbo idea out there for Mustangs, but their kits were a little too complete (taking 7 large shipping boxes) and too expensive. The other Mustang TT maker is Turbo Driven Concepts (or TDC). Good kits and without the hassle of cutting up your car. Still very expensive. Cartech is a great maker if you want a single turbo (and let's face it, that's really all you need cuz you can only fit so much boost and air flow through that stock intake tube). Their kits are pretty complete and still priced along with some of the centifugal blowers. Same goes for Turbo Technologies Inc. (or TTI). Sinlge turbo systems with the same attributes as the Cartech kits...although many people I've takled to say the Cartech kits are better in a few respects. So for now those are your four choices without going to a custom designed or junkyard kit. IMHO all your really need is a good sized single turbo. They can spool up in just about any rpm band and can keep pulling up high. TT kits are such a pain to work around and VERY expensive. They're also much more labor intensive in a job that's already a tall order. Hope that helps.
