ya, the svo's are sweet, but nothin beats the kick-in-the-pants of the torquey v8s. and if you plan on having a 12 second turbo car, you wont get that 22mpg without a serious foot adjustment. with that kind of power feet tend to become heavier, its wierd how gravity works!

I got into mustangs because I was putting a 2.3 turbo in a MGB. So had opertunity to buy a wrecked 88 mustang with 2.3 turbo. for extra motor. Guess what wife wanted a mustang and I had extra turbo motor. So I built the 89 2.3 turbo. Have less than 2500 in entire project. Have a good freind into the v-8 car. Have got lot of free parts from him and gave him some. He has drove mine and have talked off and on. No problem or conflict. Eviligloo mention dyno a cobra and svo. I did find this video. http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w...5/100_5106.jpg Went to NMRA in Bowling Green Ky last year, Enter 89 in car show. Talk to a bunch of people seen no conflict or problem. Treated with a lot of respec.

I have both, and they have their own pros and cons. The V8 sounds better and takes of better. Th 4 banger weighs less. But all in all i'd take the V8, but a worked up 2.3 turbo can smoke most V8's but a V* can always be built to overtake the 4
