Anyone wanna post up some stuff for the engine compartment? Different throttle bodies that work, turbos, radiators and fans etc? Im really interested in this stuff since there are NO turbo coupes in the yards up here it seems.
1988 Turbo Coupe - A237 cam, K&N Cone, T3(.60-.63), 255 Walbro, Gillis BV, gutted and knifed intakes, ported e6, 3" elbow/dp to dual 2.5s, Kirban and spearco fmic.

Up next, ported head, t3/t4 upgrade.

depends on wat you mean as bolt on or if you wanna have to mod it to make it fit?
As for some stuff you can mod and will work the Supercoupe throttle bodies can be made to fit im sure you could make a 5.0 throttle body fit too. just about any electric fan will work even seen people use the mechanical fans off of a ranger on them too. An for radiator i know in the rangers the 4.0 radiators work great not sure if they will fit in a TC though. Turbos thats a little harder but any turbo with a t3 4 bolt flange on it should fit. Id say the best turbo you could try to find in a yard would be look around for a older cummins with a holset on it they are great turbos and will make huge amounts of power and unless your building a full out drag car you will prolly never max it out.

What cummins? Not sure, are those the trucks? As for the rest, I just meant in general. It would be nice to have a list here with all parts that can be made to fit for an upgrade, or are bolt ons, and what cars you can get them from, my list of parts up there was just a start.

ya the cummins came in the trucks.
89-93 Holset H1C too big for most 2.3s no wastegate just a huge housing to keep boost under control.

early 94 Holset WH1C similar to the early HX35W just usually cheaper in price.

later 94-98 early Holset HX35W great turbo and like i sai dbefore unless your going for full out drag you will prolly never max it out.

98-02 Later Holset HX35W has a slightly smaller 7 blade compressor wheel and a silver compressor housing.

01-02 auto trucks came with a Holset HY35W has a small 9cm SINGLE scroll turbine housing.

94-95 mustang 5.0, Lincoln Mark VIII, Towncar have the 75mm TB.
1986 Turbo Coupe. Boport StageIII head, Boport 2.1, Performance Techniques 50 trim hybird, StageII.63, stinger 3" exhaust, Phenolic spacer, Boglog header,NPR FMIC intercooler setup, kirban fpr, bigrmotorsports fuel rail, diablo water meth kit, CAI, remote mount TFI, CHE rear adj control arms, MAC girdle, 8.8 rear disc, aluminum drive shaft, H&R lowerings springs Tbird Turbo Specific, y MAS!!

Well as for wat make that would be Dodge and as for model it would have to be a 2500 Ram or 3500 Ram due to the 1500s never had cummins diesels in them. Years on there for wat years came with wat turbo.

The 89-93 SC's used a 60mm TB, and the 94-95 used a 70mm TB to match the bigger blower used in 94-95.

The 94-95 5.0 GT, GTS, and Cobra all used a 60mm TB.

One parts car still waiting to be taken apart.
Waiting in the garage: SC throttle body, SC intercooler, graphic equalizer, among other things.

The 5.0 Crown Vics used a small TB. The later 4.6 Crown Vics, and the ones that used the "panther" engine family all used a fairly decent sized TB. It's just not an easy adaption to our TC's.
