Will the blower for a 2.5L Duratec Contour work on a 3.0L Duratec Tuarus? I'm still thinking about maybe getting one soon if the Tour keeps acting up and I'm trying to figure out my options for performance mods.

The list is really long so I decided to save us some bandwidth by taking it out! ----------------------------------- 1987 Subaru XT GL10 AWD Turbo Removed half the interior in my never ending quest to find the fuel pump relay so I can fix it!!!!

Most Taurii are ATX's. The Vortech kit's bracked won't work. Might I suggest you check out our turbo kit when we adapt it to the Escape and possibly the Taurus/Sable. Duratec 3L only.

I figured as much. I don't even know if you can even get the Tuarus in a 5 speed anymore. But a turbo sounds just as good. If I get a Tuarus it probably won't be for a couple more months anyway. Any idea on how much power the turbo gives the 3.0L?

Definitely not a Duratec MTX Taurus... There was a 4cyl stick shift Taurus. TB

And I've also seen 5 speed 3.0Ls and a couple in 3.8L Tuarii too. But not since the mid nineties redesign though.

But hey, then agian will the MTX75 not hook up to the 2001+ 3.0L Duratecs? Isn't that the reason those are used for the Tour transplants? He He He yet another mad scientist idea brewing over here.
