M20 Turbo or.....

[codrum]

m20s are abundant and easy to turbo with all the guides available here and e30tech. You can easily make that power with a typical setup - every step has been done before and is laid out if you research a little. The most difficult and most important part is tuning. whodwho has you covered on the hardware and there are plenty of MS configs/maps.

If you want something unique then it would make sense to do a v8 swap.

You realize tuning a carb is as hard if not harder than tuning with fuel injection, right? At least with the fuel injection, unless you are changing parts, it will just run without problems.

How's the fit with the 5.0?

Would much rather have a turbo m20 than a big heavy slow ford engine everyday

93 Fox body 5.0, 205hp/275tq at the crank. Not exactly huge numbers here, but from the sounds of you not wanting to "mess with the ecu blah blah blah" I would recommend going this route. Turbo setups are more involved then just strapping a turbo to your motor.

Do you know how much power the 5.0's put out?

5.0s are for fags, man.

So I've been thinking about doing a turbo set up on my m20 to make about 300-350whp.. but earlier today my buddy was telling me about a 5.0 swap. I was thinking about maybe doing a carbed 5.0 so I don't have to mess with an ECU blah blah blah.. Any Ideas? yes or no?
