Hey man, first off awesome car! I am also 16 and am just starting my turbo install. To answer your question there isnt really way to just "install" anything for there arent any turbo parts for I6s. Most things are custom. You can find pics on fordsixparts.com of peoples setups to get a general Idea. But I'm really not experienced with this stuff so I'll let others tell you. Hey your names Thomas too....

Welcome man,
First off, before you boost, you will want to check the motor over and see how sound it is. Tired motor + Boost can = BOOM!!!!!!! or snap, or any other unwanted sound. You will want to work on the induction and exhaust as well. Better exhaust and 2 barrel carb will make things better and then upgrade the ignition. Look into those mods THEN look into boost, besides, I like feelin the progress. Going from stock to new carb and exhaust is great, then feeling the ignition advantage and the head work. Now I will be workin up a new cam, head, pistons and a turbo. Doin it all at once, or goin too big right away doesnt seem as fun to me. Anyways, enough of my jibber-jabber, my car doesnt even run. Good luck, have fun and most of all, keep inline

I would work on just doing a holley 350 on the stock log. Trust me with all the little details to work out it will be one hell of a project. once you finish that up when you step up to a boosted car you just have to make a couple changes to teh carb and you are set.

Those carbs go for about 220 now before about 200, you can get a good used one off ebay for a little bit cheaper, goto Matts site (66sprint6's) its very good, and has lots of pics of his installs... Tommy
