Hey im new to the boards, but not to turbo's, with all that, although you might have to change out that feul system, never underestimate how much feul those boys can guzzle, an HP twin turbo system, or even one of there larger thumper race turbo's, if you are really brave and have a strengthened chassis and solid suspension could work, me and 4.6l have not as many options as those of you with 5.0's in choice for turbos, look at HP, uhh Pro turbo, damn i can't remember all of them, it keeps changing because so many go out of business
But if they say it will handle 30 psi of boost, a large race turbo, or 2 big turbo's on that block will get you upwards of 900 rwhp, but turbo's give torque and power a lot faster and all at once compared to a blower, so you need to be very sure of the strenght of that 7500 dollar build before you turn the boost up. And you will have no self control on turning that boost up, it will call to you

I thought they went out of business, oh well shows how much I know, i just know that TDC that saleen has and HP are the best i know of right now. But I also look for 4.6 kits, as i said before you might be able to find more if you search google or something for 5.0 specific turbo kits.
