Start here...

www.stinger-performance.com

www.turboford.org

www.boport.com

I had an 86 with very minimal mods that ran 12.9.

The Stinger site has a bunch of info on swapping a non turbo 2.3 car over to a turbo 2.3.

Fun cars!

I had one too. The Castros ended up parting it out.

When I traded it, the car was all original with only a btm, boost controller, exhaust and was silver with t tops, black recaro style seats and trx wheels.

By the time they got it, the car had a blown headgasket, pony rims and a dent in the fender.

So you now own one of 422

I parted out my 88 turbo coupe to pay for my 85 gt. Eventually I'd like to get another turbo 2.3 and stick it in a hatchback or maybe a fairmont. They're pretty badass little motors.

I had an '84 SVO. Great car. One of the few cars I've owned that I really miss.

I would keep as much as you can. Just cause.

Here is some pics. The car is bone stock. Bought it with a bad turbo. Some one painted it this crappy color. Was silver.


Dan I know of at least another 7 that have been crushed or scrapped. So I'd say about 400-410 left.
