I was never a fan of the scavange setup that was part of it. The dual intercoolers were a bit weak. Compared to today those kits would be stone age.

Hmm...I remember their kits powering some of the fastest Mustangs in the country at the time..back in my Mustang days. But yeah turbo kits have come a long way since then.

You may have information that I don't have regarding the mustangs. I was only familiar with the ones built for Fbody's. They knew what they were doing but they built their fbody version to fit into the tight spaces that were available without moving too many parts around. Some folks did crank them up but found out quickly that the kit was a compromise more towards fitting into the existing compartment. I remember the scavange pump would fail regularly. That always created quite the smoke cloud.

That was Dave Inall. He is now I believe with APS turbo systems in AUS. But I could be wrong.
