That is definatly a turbo not a supercharger. You would need alot more parts to compleate a turbo kit for a mustang unless it was a 2.3L turbo engine.

Yeah, if you had an SVO it would be one thing. Usually with a V8 you go with a higher A/R and a twin setup. Alot more to it than slappin on one T.

Yea becuase you have two headers and if you only had one turbo the air would be getting forced(pushed) into one header why the other would still be sucking in the air. Thats why you would need to get twin turbos correct?

Not really. It would still be routed into the intake, it doesnt push air through the header. It restricts the header a little and pushes into the intake. You want the restriction even on both sides. There have been v6's with only one turbo, but I dont know how they were routed. I know there was a chevy like that and it sucked bad, but then they had the GN and that was mean.

Great price on the turbo, but the headers and install would be in the thousands. A single Turbo on a V6 would be identical to a V8 install with both headers modded. But the other thing would be intercooling, BOV, OY!
