    anything can be turbod, all you are doing is making boost with no belt like a centrifugal supercharger would.

    You should just ask some of your fares what they think
    Machining, Fabricating, Welding etc.

    You move like a cop!
    Blower would look cool popping out the top of the crown vic... toss a built 351 small block in there with a roots blower Then you can catch all those ricers and put em behind bars where they belong

    u dont need a kit to turbo anything, u buy a turbo get the manifold made then spend a assload of money on parts.

    I am in the midst of a 4.3l turbo, there is no kit for it, u could turbo a lawnmower if u had the time and money
