[fourmustangs]

I am getting a 87 turbo coupe complete engine
I will be getting turbocoupe computer automatic

what else is needed......?
whats needed for harness?
any other sensors etc that sit in the engine bay for the engine?
need boost/vacuum gauge and exhaust temp....
where can I get new pipes that work for mustang with the turbo coupe engine....

its going in a 89 2.3l automatic mustang....

check my website below...there are turbo swap directions, performance parts, etc...

in the wiring diagrams for the 87-89 what would be different if any for the automatic setup?

 

[Stinger]

No, but if I were you I'd find a 5 speed for it...the auto's are a total POS, especially behind a turbo motor...

 

[fourmustangs]

Its for my wife and she has a bad ankle and cant drive stick...

if I can I will build up the a4ld or find another automatic i can shove behind the turbo

 

[fourmustangs]

one question since changing wires and taking out the egr.......will the car pass emissions?

 

[Asha'man]

How strict are they? If the car is in a good state of tune and has a cat, you should be okay to pass the sniffer. Dunno if they inspect in TX or not.

what other automatic can I put behind a 2.3 turbo

You've only got two choices.

A4LD (weak, overdrive)
or
C4 (stout, no overdrive) bellhousings are getting harder to find.
