more power different and itll be fun

 

upside is more power, and if the turbo kit is pieced together correctly with proper tuning, the risk of blowing the motor up is minimal to none. and a 1.1 ar on a turbo is ridiculous huge for a 5.0. you should not really need more than a 70 trim and even thats pushing it to the high rpm band for usable power. 8:1 compression will work fine and 8 to 10 pounds with a decent motor build will easily get you to 400 whp. and i also would recommend the use of megasquirt, my buddy uses it on his turbo probe and turbo miata, and another buddy uses it on his 250 shot mx6, with a knowledge tuner, it will work perfectly with your setup. im currently trying to sell my car so i can do a megasquirt setup on my 93.

 

is your 93 the probe and if so is it a gt

 

i meant my 93 f150. i got a 95 sprayed mx6 right now im trying to get rid of to use the money on the truck. i got busted for street racing so the car has to go. i used to have a 96 mx6 m edition but sold it a while ago. my buddy has a 94 probe gt turbo, its a damn beast, its got a klze high compression motor, boosting 14 psi with a t3/t4, megasquirted. if one of the few times we could keep a tranny in it, we got a decent tune on it, and pulled a c5 vette pretty bad.

 

i use to have a 94 gt it was na and ran high 13s with slicks

 

not bad, you on any of the probe/mx6 forums? what was done to your 94, right now i got the 95 with a afpr, cai, exhaust, and zex 75, i think before i sell it, im gonna try to make it down to the local track and try to get a pass out of it, but i think the 18X8s are gonna hurt me a little.

 

probetalk same name i had headers custom high flow 2.5 cat back, cai, pullys, flywheel, short throw, weight reduc, i had to sell it and want another

 

ive got two td04-hl's and together they might be just barley big enough for a stock-ish 5.0 but i KNOW there too small for a 5.8(like i have) but the 7.3l diesels use 1.17 a/r and they run about 20psi at 1000 rpm so airflow has a lot to do with it too not just A/R. i was going to put a 7.3 turbo on my 5.8 but they sold the truck i was going to get it from. the TD04-HL is maxxed out on size at like 2.5l. hope this helps
