Doing the investigation on the twin-turbo 300 thing...

What are your thoughts on the ford 2.3 turbo? Is it a good unit? Anyone know the source for maps? Anyone know of any 2.3 turbo forums I could lurk about? TIA,

Mike

You can go to www.turboford.org

And you can go to http://forums.stangnet.com/forumdisplay ... forumid=17

Generally turboford is mostly hardcore max power racer types and the Stangnet group is hop up and engine swap guys.

The 2.3L turbo motor is cheap, is very durable, and is still easy to get parts for.

On Turboford I would try and talk to Stinger and 140cilx.

On Stangnet I would try and talk to Bhuff, Stinger, 140CILX, and goland 55.

You can tell them I sent ya. They should know who I am.
 
might be better with some mopar turbos on that. the 2.3L turbo move alot of air and come off a motor that revs to 6k stock. a dodge turbo being smaller would work better for a tiwn setup. gong for peak or low end power?

I'm going primarily for low end, but the forced induction will overcome a lot of the breathing restraints of this motor, so the possibility exists for some 5K+ RPM operation, which will be necessary on account of the wide ratio NP435 and the 2.73 gears... In other words, I'm looking for the broadest possible torque and powerbands.
