I have access to a 2.3L turbo motor, turbo, all piping, and intercooler. I also have the turbo wiring harness and possibly the PCM.

What else will be needed to drop this setup into my 91LX?

Thanks.

Forget the turbo wiring harness, Check out Stinger's site for the repining diagrams. He also has a walk through of how he did his.

Your car is a 91-93 mustang, meaning mass air/DIS...so the swap will be a little more involved, but very doable!

Is your car a manual?

Thanks for the reply!

Do you know of anything major that I'll need to purchase? Or is it just a whole bunch of wiring? Wiring doesn't worry me, expensive parts suddenly needed during the swap do.

You'll need the air meter, coil, computer, and a few parts of the harness...if the harness isn't extra $$$ then grab it as well.

You'll also want to look into using the turbo flywheel and clutch if you have a 5 speed.

So the MAF and coil packs on the 91 won't work?
