Ive had a few 2.3's in other things, and its actually fairly cheap to work with. Get the complete motor/harness from an 88 turbo coupe, and slam it in... you could probably find the complete setup for like $200-400 from a wrecking yard. Can make some good power numbers from the 2.3, with only a little bit of work. I had an old Merkur (2.3), was pushin 207rwhp,240tq,with only a little extra boost,3" exhaust,air filter, and an intercooler. You can get alot more than that, just takes a few more little things. i think the exhaust is the only thing youd have to buy other than the motor/harness itself, to mnake the whole swap work. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Nite Ryder</b> <br /><small>Member # 912</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2002,10,1,11,41,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Thanks for the info guy's I appreciate it. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>FordPny</b> <br /><small>Member # 510</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2002,10,1,18,8,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> I have that swap currently in my car, its pretty damm easy and you can easly have those engines make some pretty impresive numbers,<br /><br />For learning how to do a swap, check out the links page on my website and it you want theres also pictures of my 2.3turbo in there.<br /><br />my web address is on the bottom.<br /><br />Good luck on it and I definetly recomend it. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Jimbo</b> <br /><small>Member # 1456</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2002,10,1,18,38,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> checkout <a href="http://www.turboford.org" target="_blank">www.turboford.org</a> great site!! <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Nite Ryder</b> <br /><small>Member # 912</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2002,10,6,10,4,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Thanks fellas for the links and tips it looks like I'll be reading up more on the Turbo coupe motors. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" /> <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
