well here is the turbo parts for the 2.3 in my 90 notch. the turbo is a T3/T4
V band "0" trim 38mm wastegate, billit blow off valve etc... It also came with alot of tubing, fuel pres. reg. oil lines. I picked up a 1985 turbo coupe motor. I got very lucky and the only thing that was takin off was the fuel injectors so I got the turbo the manifold I left the vane meter and computer since I will going with a dfi
I am looking at having the head ported and getting a turbo cam but do not know much about cams for the 2.3 so any help would be great. I have looked at the
A237 hyd roller or lunati has cam that is a hyd slider so any input would be great

Nice stuff ya got there. With all this new interest I am seeing out there in the 2.3turbo it makes me wanna pull my notch out of commuter duty and do some more with it. Maybe if I find the SHO I have been looking for I will be able to do that. After driving my wifes SHO I think it would be a more comfortable commuter than my stripped out loud as hell 4 banger car.
As far as cams you might check out Turboford.org. They are usually pretty up to date on the latest/greatest. Keep us posted on how that little car runs.

Two words for ya EJ: Crown. Victoria.

Mid-twenties on the highway. Incredibly comfortable for those 30-mile commutes. Instant respect on I-5. Can be had very cheaply. Easy to work on.

Looks like you are off to a good start Phil. What's the estimated time of completion for the project?

I would like to see around 350hp-450hp, this is all new to me so I will have to see I will need some help from the turbo people around. The turbo can support up to 650hp will I get that probably not even close to that, as far as 1/4 mile times if it runs in the 12's I will be very happy
