Hello from AZ!

Hi everyone.  Just wanted to introduce myself and my 85 Turbo coupe.  It's a $500 ebay special that took a 24hr straight round trip to pick it up.  I've had her just over a year and now have her as a 50+ mile a day driver.  I had to have the motor rebuilt and repaired or modified other odds and ends.  I'm learning a lot coming from 5.0 mustang way of thinking.  The only pictures I can show now are in my album.  Hopefully I can download more soon...

This mods so far:

- 40 over motor (was already @ 30 before the rebuild)
- Stinger exhaust manifold, WG, and down pipe.
- Custom 3" exhaust dumping before the rear wheel and dump.
- Big turbo that I have no idea the size or make (no stamping or I.D. tag)
- Manual boost controller.
- Stage 3 clutch
- Relocated VAM with temporary induction (going to bent piping)

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
