techdbw said:the 91-93 2.3 mustangs used the dual plug set up for emission reasons. However on the plus side the engine is rated at 105hp whereas the earlier 2.3 was rated at 88hp. The other changes were an increase in compression, mass air EFI, and a roller cam setup, instead of the slider cam setup. Some say the roller cam is responsible for most of the hp increase.
so as long as you stay under 10psi of boost a stock motor will hold up, as long as the motor is in good shape?techdbw said:the 91-93 2.3 mustangs used the dual plug set up for emission reasons.

Adding a turbo to this engine is fairly easy, because it has mass air you can use 30 or 36 lb injectors from a 5.0, add the exhaust manifold and turbo and get a good power increase. If you plan to go over 10psi of boost you will need to replace the stock cast pistons with forged pistons. You can find more info at therangerstation.com
One note from experience, if you replace the plug wires, get the set that has the built in boot puller for the drivers side #3&4 cyl. It makes replacing plugs a lot easier.
