			 If you want to stay cheap, look for a turbocharged engine from a 87-88 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe or a late 80's Merkur XR4-Ti.  The intercooled engines developed more power than their non-intercooled predecessors from the early/mid 80s.  That will start you off with a base engine that is designed to handle the additional power.  The stock '93 2.3 isn't nearly as strong. 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	Getting 250hp out of a turbo 2.3L won't be a problem.  |
