I don't know much about their electricals and such, but I think an awesome cheap turbo would be the 99-up powerstroke ford diesel turbos with .84 A/R turbines and 1.10 compressors. They flow 615cfm which works out to 570hp. On 5.0 mustangs they hit full boost a bit before 3000rpm, I'd think the Q would be coming on boost by 27-2800 and full by 3500. I believe the internal stock wastegate is set to open at 6psi on these but that could always be increased with a bleed valve. The only thing I'm leery of for the Q is 10.5:1 compression. I wouldn't want to push more than about 8psi even with an intercooler on pump gas. I'd think headers wouldn't be too tough, I'm sure there's someone on the Turbomustangs.com forum that could build a good set.
Nice Info Thanks... Umm Well there is a guy with the Q motor Twin turbo. Yes with the stock bottom end. I don't remember but i think i read something about how his friend was saying it runs 11's with major traction problems. I can ask the shop down the street on how the turbo whould work out for the Q. ever heard of Titan Motorsports?
