This board is filled with 5.0s and 4.6s. Does anyone here have a turbo'd 4cyl mustang? I was outside playing around with my little beater car and i was thinking about turbo'ing it. I looked up some videos of turbo'd 4 cyl mustangs and wow. Im impressed. Some of them move real well and would give alot of 5.0s a run for their money. I'm really considering it now. What do you think?? if theres any turbo'd 4 cyl cars here. LMK. I have some questions for you.
