Hi everyone!
Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Ryan and I just got my first thunderbird and first turbo-equipped car, an '88 turbo coupe. It does need quite a bit of work, but its got fairly low miles (102k) and a Gnari turbo and front mount intercooler already installed, so I'm pretty excited to get started. Looking forward to learning all about these awesome cars!

P.S. I personally think the lowered suspension and 18" BBS wheels have to go, I'd love to hear all of your thoughts!

Thanks everyone! Yeah, the photo was giving me fits, sorry that it didn't work (it's not real impressive anyway).
