i have a 98 3.8L v6 mustang. i was wondering, what do i have to change out in order to get twin turbo working right?
technically you have to at least cut and weld on new flanges on the exhaust manifolds so technically you do have to change something.SSStang said:well technically,
You would not have to change anything just install the turbos
Personally I would not add any poweradders like a TT or a S/C with that many miles on it. You engine is tired by then. I would buy a new engine (new 3.8 or for the same price get a 4.2) and put it on then. If you dont want to do that, Get Forged Internals, and at least a stage 2+ power pak for it.Avaric3 said:how many miles can u have on ur engine and safely put a twin turbo on it. my engine has 70,000. would it be safe to do it at say 80,000 cuz thats whn ill have the cash for it.

Then how is he gonna get the turbo on the exhaust manifolds? Rectangle flanges vs. Circular... I don't think that fits to well.SSStang said:NopeCricket said:technically you have to at least cut and weld on new flanges on the exhaust manifolds so technically you do have to change something.SSStang said:well technically,

He could run open exhaust from the turbo back lol
how do you know if you have abs by the way?Cricket said:lol
His twin turbo kit you need to get some new ac lines, or delete your ac, and also relocate your abs if you have it.
I think 99+ are all equipped with abs standard I do know the 94-98 v6's don't have abs.GreenFaleen said:how do you know if you have abs by the way?Cricket said:lol

you looking at a good amount of money, I just got my quote from a shop. for a turbo in my car and all the parts to hold the 400 horsepower (new rearend, new tranny, roll bar, upgraded rims and tires, full suspension, and built engine block and internals) It is close to 20 grand. To get stuff done right it is expensive so be prepared to spend 10-20 grand on an engine swap or turbo.98stangv6 said:lol i have 114k miles on my car. i was thinkin of gettin a 4.6L v8 with forged pistons and rods. would that work?
