[QUOTE="DavidBoren, post: 1340476, member: 20078"] If you insist on boosting your car on a budget, then do a junkyard turbo build. Flip some equal length shorties, have an exhaust shop build you the hot side pipes (if you can't do it yourself), and run a downpipe/midpipe/Y-pipe back to whatever cat-back exhaust you have. You can go to a pick'n'pull once a month, pick up a turbo here, and intercooler there, etc. Or keep boost low (under 9psi), say screw the intercooler, and simplify the entire system (think: spend less). As for the M90... don't do it, it's a trap. There wasa guy who used to make sheetmetal upper intake adapters that allowed you to put a positive displacement blower on the Windsor motor, but his intakes had problems warping, he took a bunch of people's money, and disappeared. You might be able to find one of his intakes on ebay, though. You also might be able to adapt the SuperCoupe remote mount M90 and associated plumbing. That would solve the hood clearance issues. But I think the M90 is too small for the five-oh. [/QUOTE]
