I have a '92 foxbody 4 cyl. Automatic and i want to buy another engine.

I want to get one of the turbo 4 cyl. motors, but i dont know where i can get one, or how difficult it will be to change over.

Your best bet would be to just find one and have the entire thing rebuilt including the turbocharger. My uncle ran the Turbo Coupe setup on his N/A '90 2.3 Mustang and it always ran like shit. The turbo motors are supposed to be able to hold up better from what I hear.
