Sorry, this has been discussed alot in the 2.3 community. The only thing similar between this engine and the "classic" 2.3 i-4 is the displacement...just like the new 5.0 compared to the "classic" 5.0...

Turboing this will be just as custom as a zetec...
(unless ford decides to give us a factory turbo at some point laugh )
