2.3L Turbo

I have a 2.3L Turbo 4-banger. Looking to make the engine FAST without alot of hassle. I got it from a 1985 Cougar, this thing is stock (as far as I know). Got suggestions please let me know.

Put a cam in it, a head with some nice port work to top it off and then drop it in something small....

Check this site out: www.turboford.org that's a site of everything turboed by ford over the years, but the mustang/t-bird/cougar 2.3 turbos are its bread and butter.

if you have a ranger, this will do great, the mustang folks, just do head work(sometimes bigger valves and always port it good.) if they make a header for it, get one
