Single Turbo Reqirements

Hey. It's so tempting...I have a Super T-76 Turbo sitting in my room. It's been sitting here since i pulled it from my blow-through carb 5.0 mustang motor....I WANT TO USE IT.

How possible is it to just put a different exhaust manifold on, bolt up the turbo and fit the oil lines/intake pipes/and wastegate hoses, and just run it?

I mean would anything really need to be modified to just slap in a single??

I know this is stupid and i know most likely it requires full fuel system upgrade, standalone, and ignition system along with bigger intercooler and all that good ****

But ..i was just hoping....

Stop hoping, start buying parts .

You'll need all that plus more.

So, You are on this site too. Cool! If you want to see just what's involved to set up a single, let me know. My car only looks stock on the outside ;-)

My list of parts is about 500 positions. Turbo, WG etc. are about half of summary costs. Fittings, lines etc. eat much bucks.

I don't think english is his first language.

To answer your question, you'll need the oil lines, IC piping, exhaust, wg, BOV, a good tune, and most importantly more FUEL!!!!!
