If you have no idea what the turbo is, how it's sized, etc. it will probably not be properly suited to your particular motor. I know a decent amount of the IHI turbos and I would guess it's only about 1/2 the size of what you need for 3.8L

WTF is that supposed to mean? I didn't mean it as he needs to get a better motor. I just meant that obviously he needs to put it on a motor. Where did I say that he needs a better motor?

I would really shut your mouth Newb, especially since you haven't been on the board long enough to know who I am and how I come off when I talk (type).

By your obvious defensiveness of the 3.8 I take it that you have one. Don't be mad at me if your slow.

i will admit it is not as fast as i want it, but the 3.8 can take more abuse than the other engines ford puts out. i just don't like it when people attack the v6 because it has two less cylinders
