Alright guys as most of you no my 90coupe was stolen and got recovered with some damage so after my brother WILDMAN97 found this clean 1991 ford mustang lx hatch 2.3 yes it's a 4 banger clean title. So here's the plan swap everything over from my coupe nothing special some of you guys know what it has just a h/c/i on some boost. We'll I won't spoil how much I pick it up for but if someone guesses it beers on me. Any thought or recommendations would be appreciated thanks.

That looks to be a good size turbo on there. What kind of power are you looking to make?
