I was at Carlisle this weekend, and an Idea came to me...Building a mustang SVO II. have a turbo 2.3 all I would need is a clean rust free hatchback body. I don't know a whole lot about wiring harnesses and such but I guess i'll learn. 5 lug conversion with SVO wheels and try to somehow fabricate a bi-plane wing. anyone ele ever do a 2.3 efi II? or is it somehing I shouldn't even try?

yep, Someday in the next couple years I'll have my second 2.3L Turbo Mustang II on the road...it'll make my 351W T-Top obsolete. Definately a good idea and it can be done pretty simply. Mine has been made unnecessarily complex so it's taking a while, but should be over 400 very streetable hp.

Earlier version that has been on the road last summer:

Current version that is slowly coming together...the big difference is a new turbo and header, but a lot is involved with making this new combo work.

I would like to build a heavily modified 2.3 turbo and install it in the ugliest, rattiest, rustiest, *****brindle-brownest, pinto I can find, then go torment some unsuspecting import guys with it.

Thank you Darryl..I hope you don't mind me picking your brain over the next several months. I figured with gas prices at an all time high, a 4 cyl turo would be a fun playcar
