Lots of custom work I can assure you. What year/engine is your car?

it's a '00 v6 stang. I put a dual exhaust on it so far, along with bullitt wheels and a K&N intake.

You better have a huge wallet. As far as I know they don't make a turbo for a 3.8 mustang.... they do make superchargers which means lots of custom work to get performance and relability....custom means lots of money!!!!! I would just get a V8 and then save for a turbo for it, which I know companies do make. Less headache!!!

turbo
thanx! Getting a GT sounds nice! You're right. So far the only thing I have seen for a 00 3.8 is supercharger. But I kinda want a turbo. Thanx for the info!

Turbo Design Concepts makes one for a 3.8L Mustang. It may be for 94-98 though. You may want to check it out though.

Or just find a TBird SC motor and slap it in there ;-). Or you could probably use the top end, but your weak link would the the bottom end.
