To answer your questions:
1: possibly
2: as much as it can until the shaft breaks.
to better assist you we need to know what it is, and what you want to do with it. Is it an IHI,T3,T4,Holset,Schwitzer,powerstroke, etc?

Wow. considering there were several different turbos that the 2.3 used stock, again it really depends.
was this a carb'd turbo car? a Turbocoupe- if so what year?? SVO? Merkur?
Kind of like walking into the 5.0 forums and saying " will this V8 work? is it worth it?"

ahh sorry didn't know that.
its from a 89 all i had was the vin. it says its a 2.3 4cyl. but not if its a turbo.
but i'm assuming it has to be cause the car has 5lug rear end with disc brakes. and who would do that if it wasn't modified with a turbo??? the car is at the junkyard. and i was wondering if the tubo alone is worth something.
i ain't going to take an engine that i don't know nothing about espeicially if it may not run.

If its modified who knows. It could be parts from a stripped SVO, god rest its soul, or it could be an engine stripped out of a turbocoupe, which means it is either a T3, trim depending on year, or an IHI turbo. The T3 would be the more desireable of the two, or who knows it could be a cheapo ebay turbo or wherever the previous owners imagination took him. Unless you look at it yourself theres no way to know on a modified car...

yeah the only 89 that could have been a factory turbo would be an XR4TI. Mustang no longer got turbochargers after 86, and the T-birds were done in 88. if you can get some pictures of that car that would help try to figure out what it is.
