Need info for turbo







Not tryin to hijack the thread but when I told my friend about puttin a turbo in my explorer he told me I would have to take out the power steering. Is that actually true?

I would spend a few days researching different setups over at theturboforums.com first. The same principals for any turbocharged gas vehicle will apply to your Explorer. For the turbocharger itself, something with a 60-70mm compressor with a P-trim turbine will be a good starting point. Be prepared to spend at least $700 for just the turbocharger if you are buying new. There are cheaper chinese units available, but most are ticking time bombs.

You may have to rearrange some things to get it under the hood- my turbo isnt under the hood though :)
 






Yeah dont know a whole lot about turbo's except from what I read on the forum but I never heard anyone say they would have to take out the power steering. I wasnt planning on putting it under the hood anyways.
