Hey Stazi,
Not a bad paper! Was it graded? Only reason I ask is because there were some silly grammatical errors and the like, that I would have gotten reamed for at my college, even though they had little do do with the intent of the paper.
One thing I did notice you missed though, was that you failed to mention that turbos spin the wrong way south of the equator . . .

Chris and Stazi,
I don't want to necessarily talk him out of doing his own turbo, but to do it right, and intelligently, instead of throwing a bunch of parts at the car. Of course this hinges on the fact of whether he can intelligently figure out what he needs to do, and how to do it.
For example, though there are a couple of turbo kits for the 5.0L Mustang available, I still plan on developing my own, simply for the exercise of doing it, and understanding what is going on with it when I am done. (btw, stazi I will prolly be plying you with beer to assist me when I actually begin installing parts etc. :D) Though my example is not completely relevent because of my education in M.E.
