I had to go out side of my city to find a TC donor car. Now they make some pretty cool Nitrous sets and they sell pretty cheap on Ebay if you wanted to go that route. I guess it depends on what you find or what your doing with the car. As for the Auto, I'm not impressed to much with the A4LD and you can get a hair more power out of the T-5 also.
 
well I have a T-5 just sitting in my garage It could use a rebuild pretty bad, but none the less its there I plan on putting a turbo in it rather soon, i just dont know how soon though the main problem is where to put it in at we really dont have room to do it here any ideas on how much it'd cost for me to have a place put it in?
 
Hey, your from KC too? There is a pretty good group of us already. :D
I used to see turbo coupes for cheap in the paper, but I havn't seen one for a while. U-wrench it occasionally has a turbo coupe, but they are always missing several parts by the time it find em. I think the only other option within the city would be paying out the butt for one of the other J-yard to pull one for you.
 
Thats awsome! Where are you at in KC? lol you could be my Go-To man because I know jack, I think i might try to go to U Wrench it Saturday to see if they have a TC, so is it bassically just a straight swap?

I am actually living in lawrence now, but I go home to olathe most weekends.
As for the 5sp swap, the only problem could be trying to use the hydrolic clutch, and I am unsure if a TC pedal assembly will work in a mustang.
 
Hrm, any other bolt ons i could get to give me a little bit of boost to tie me over for awhile until the turbo? i've been thinking of getting a new header and Intake, any ideas?
