I think your asking for trouble buying something like that off of ebay. Get something you know will fit and is a brand youve actually heard of...you get what you pay for IMO.

Of course turbocharging will do alot to your acceleration. The problem is this is just a "part" and not a kit. There is a whole hell of alot of other parts you would need to make this puppy work right. If you are serious about turbo charging, you should look at all the Mustang performance sites and check out the "kits". As with the superchargers, these kits are not cheap.....but they are "complete" and work wonders on your power curve.

I third this. Plus that is just the turbo itself. You will need all the piping etc. Just get a kit. It will cost more but I would trust it 1000 times more.

Im sorry to say this, but i was watching nopi tunervision on speed channel(just trying to keep up with what the enemy is working with j/k) But ive seen some superfast drag cars running Garrett turbos. No, they arent as popular as greddy, but they are/becoming a name brand. Get some info before saying its junk. From what ive seen, they know how to make a turbo. This may not be a good model, but Id look into a garrett turbo.

garretts arent bad, its just the idea of buying the turbo charger and expecting to just be able to slap it on without anything else, save the extra 7 grand and buy the kit that you can trust, when i say 7 gs im talking about a typical twin turbo kit

I understand what ur saying. Good point. No, the turbo ur asking about will do nothing with the proper kit.

If you can do the pipe plumbing yourself you can have a Turbo for cheaper than a S/C.
