Dont use HP unless you like waiting and empty promises.

Throw some Twisted wedge heads on stoxk bottom end
with an "F" cam and run about 8-10psi.

Quicktime Turbo
B&G Turbo
PonyDown
Hellion

all good kits

turbo sounds cool, but i dont like the idea of all the tubing..... and such.....

buddy of mine just told me today infact, that he has 2 turbos hes selling for cheap.

i dident ask him about them, becase im just a little intimidated by it........


(maybe i can stick them on my 88 ranger 2.3l 4cly......)
