      Can you put a turbo on my 95 Ranger 2.3 Automatic? ;)
      I'm in SE Michigan, love my truck just wish it was faster.
      I understand it's just a 4 cylinder, and it is my daily driver/work truck I do love the gas mileage, so I'm not looking into injectors, fuel cells ...
      I'm just wanting to add a turbo to it if that's possible without all the other mods and cutting any holes in my fenders as the truck is very clean.

    • @Hoppysjunkyardrally
      @Hoppysjunkyardrally  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Well unfortunately you would need to do injectors if you were adding a turbo. Also you would need some type of engine control module (ecu) to be able to change how the engine works with the new turbo. It can definitely be done but its not cheap or quick. I appreciate you watching!

      @@Hoppysjunkyardrally Thank you! I really appreciate the info!
      So basically, what you are saying is I'd be without my truck for a bit.
      Do you have a roundabout idea how much for turbo kit, Injectors, and ECU plus labor a place would charge? $3,000
      Trust me I am way past the point of worrying whether the truck is worth putting that type of money into it.
      Maybe cheaper just putting a 302 in it?

    • @Hoppysjunkyardrally
      @Hoppysjunkyardrally  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I would say it would depend on if its a carburetor 302 or fuel injected. Fuel injected would still need same as doing a turbo but you would also have to change transmission and possibly drive shaft (etc) i believe adding just a turbo would be "cheaper" but less hp than a carb or efi 302.
      As far as cost i have no idea.. the whole reason i decided to try it myself. I have very little knowledge about all of this and im learning as i go. Best advice i could give you is join all the turbo 2.3 groups on social media. There is a ton of support and there are some grat ppl out there with tons of knowledge. Im always down to help answer any questions i can. And depending on which way you go you definitely would be without your daily for a bit. Good shop could add a turbo and injectors in a week or so id guess. It took me 3 months to do my truck from start to finish doing it myself during covid. I hope you join the turbo 2.3 world but it is an expensive hobby.. could ls swap it for cheaper but who wants to do that.. lol

      It's a 87 mustang 2.3 non turbo. No forged internals. It was rebuilt and I bought it off marketplace. It had been rebuilt for about 5 year's before I got it and it had never been started. Possibly buying rods and pistons before it gets mapped on the engine dyno. Thanks for watching I appreciate it

      While it may seem rowdy it really wasn't very impressive. Butt dyno says maybe 200hp.. thats why I have went with a stage 3 ported Bo port head and his 2.5 cam.. also adding a C4 with a trans brake different header and a new slightly bigger turbo. It will be going on the engine dyno soon so I will have real numbers coming along with video. I really appreciate you watching stay tuned much more to come!
