It appears as though some people have noticed the little black turd we know as the mailman!

great build...I have the perfect idea, you need to go to a toyota dealership and get one of those Hybrid emblems they have on the back, and stick it on the trunk of the car 
I too hope to get my 6.0 block in a fox and throw a big single with a stick in there, sometime down the road.

wow...awesome freakin build
I'm in the process of putting a 5.3l in my black fox coupe and was just thinking about a turbo on it when I came across this. I'm pretty sure this thread is gonna make me spend more money than I wanted to. Hopefully I'll be picking up a motor tomorrow. Front suspension is ordered and should be in fairly soon...went with PA racing k member and arms. Rearend is at the shop being narrowed and having 9" ends welded on.
I would have never guessed a little boost would have woke that 5.3 up like that. And the 6.0l is just a monster. Awesome work.

Here is the dyno chart, the converter was slipping about 20-25% on these dyno pulls based on the mph and I spun it to 6600 rpm.
