    Turbocharging 1992/1999 explorer sport 2 door custom built

    Lol, eazy enough. And my turbo choice I settled on was the Garrett GT40. Seeing the V6 4.0L ohv hits peak hp and torque all between 2750-4200rpm. The big turbo will spool up to full boost by 4000rpm. Which I think should get er done. There are only 3 things left to buy to get the turbo...

    Ford explorer sport auto swap, ohv to sohc swap

    But i will be at least at 400+hp, which for an explorer is crazy. See ontop of the motor build, i gained a fair amout of rwhp just because i have a manual.
