ive got my stock t-lock and running close to 600 hp. unless you have hudge *** drag tires, and 700+hp theres no need to upgrade it untill you NEED it. even though i do highly suggest det. over any others. also aroung 125 is the average miles someone will come in and say that they THINK it may be acting up.

if you're new to stangs and have to ask the question "what is 4.10 and t-lok", then you definietely should not be asking where to go to turbo your car.

www.tmaturbo.com turbo mustangs.com MAC cold air intake, pypes X pipe, flowmaster mufflers. 4:10 and a FORD T-Lock(no need for anything better then that even with TT) NO LOWERING KITS, SPRING KITS, or Handling kits. For the 3.8l i suggest Roush, of course. Get some rimes, body work and u got a sweet stang!

1st 4.10's are usless with a turbo. 3.45's are optimum with the 7.5 rear
2nd Ford T-lok IS NOT A PERFORMANCE PART it is stock replacement design left over from Bronco II's and Rangers that had T-lok optioned 7.5's. it WILL NOT SURVIVE BEHIND A TT SETUP the spyder gears are small and weak in the Ford T-lok not to mention the clutch packs do not live long behind alot of power. i replaced mine twice before i chucked the ford t-lok for a detroit truetrac.

Detroit Truetrac,TA rear girdle,TA bearing cap stud kit. this is NEEDED in a 7.5 to handle a TT or turbo setup or for that matter is a very wise choice for a procharger too.

why spend money putting in a cheap *** stock replacement weak differential and spend $4000+ on power mods. doesn't make sense. do it right the first time

a roush kit or kenny brown kit will reall make the car handle but also make the turbo car harder to launch. i still agree with you on the kit though as a drag setup is a poor street setup.

if your going with a twin turbo setup deff. go with 4.10's man i wouldnt do it any other way!!!! Also you dont have to worry about it being street legal and what not. as long your x pipe is catted then you will pass emissions and everything is good, unless your state dosent do emissions testing then go with the o/r(off road) x pipe.
turbo kits are not emissions legal in California on the 3.8 as no one makes one with a C.A.R.B. # yet

please don't give advise on gears for turbo's cause you know nothing about it obviously. nobody runs 4.10's with a turbo street car. 3.73's are really too much gear but usable

3.45's for the 7.5
3.55's for the 8.8

stock 3.27's are also OK for a turbo

what about a rear end? wont it just break the **** outta it? or will it not have enough power to break the rear end?
