Turbo Charger?

oneshot012 · 04-03-2002, 05:18 PM

I have a 1971 Mustang coupe with a 302 engine in it. It has flowmaster equast and headers. I was wondering if i could put a turbo charger on it and i would like to run it at 5-10 boost. Is this possible? Second, how much would it cost? What mods would i have to make? And where would i get a turbo from? Thanks. Your help would be most appreciated.

he wants a turbo because they are the wave of the future, and they make more power at a more streetable rpm than centrifugal sc's do. as far as what you need dude, many places sell kits now, the most notable being cartech. i would check out turbomustang.com, they have alot of info on their boards strictly about turbo mustangs, including carbed ones
