Default turbochargers

search on ebay for turbochargers, and you will get a bunch of people sellin turbos for like 200 bucks. How hard would it be to take any turbocharger and make the piping for a mustang, Is that even possible? cuz im pretty sure a turbo is a turbo, just different sizes and such. Help me out someone.

Well you have to know how Turbo's Work. they Feed off of Exhaust Gas.... SOoo After the Air Goes Through the Intake you have to get a Custom Header to Go BACK to the Turbo, Then it goues out to the rest of the Exhaust. Turbo's are CHeap. The Piping and Fabrication is the HARD part.... and i believe a Custom Intake Manifold. But I would do alotta Research. The Cost is all in getting the Pipes bent and custom work. Good Luck to yah!

You're not going to need a new intake you will be able to use your old one. Like they said before it's not buying a turbo that's hard it's the piping for it. First you either have to buy or custom make headers to feed the turbos. Then you have to pipe them to the intercooler and ultimately to the throttle body. Plus you have to run the the filters. If I was going to do this project I would stick with 1 turbo. It would make things a lot easier. You will also need the normal upgrades that any F/I car needs. Fuel pump, injectors, maf, spark plugs and tune
