In fact ANY turbo will fit on the MX-3 if you get the plumbing right. The only other things you will want off the thunderbird is the wastegate. If it's the intercooled model then you may want the intercooler, but I doubt it would fit in front of the radiator.<P>The garages will have to make custom plumbing and manifold. It will cost you prolly around $2K for them to put it in. <P>You should be able to get about 200HP out of it with proper tuning. But I'm not too sure about that. There are other peeps that would know more than I do about this.<p>[ May 09, 2002: Message edited by: VizualXTC ]
