Default Turbo Setup?

I have a Garrett turbo dont know the model but the specs are .58a/r compressor and .90 a/r turbine. Is this a good size for a 302? And where could i buy the hot and cold piping that i would need including an intercooler. Im looking for cheaper stuff, it is a budget build.

Should be ok, as long as its a 60mm

You can buy just the turbo headers and cross over pipe from
B&G or Ponydown for under $1000.
Get a $400 intercooler from Treadstone
then fab up the cold side piping yourself with 90's and couplers.

Also going to need wastegate and BOV

see if you can get a number off of the turbo and post it at turbomustangs.com they will be able to tell you exactly what turbo it is.
