Very NICE score Rageranger! I'm a little Jealous.
They are pretty rare. Only made from 84-86.
Yup, SVO specific. Very sexy.
Who is your buddy? Not questioning your inteligence. But, can you confirm if he did nor did not have a variable turbo with the 2.3T? If so I'd like to know how he did it and controlled it.
You're not lying. I love my 2.3T Ranger. Don't know of another readily mass produced 4 cylinder that actually makes more torque than HP and is reliable at high performance numbers. And with the grass roots mentality of most 2.3T owners, and Fords love of using parts on multiple cars/trucks, spare parts are easily findable at the JY.

Thanks for the kind words!! I gotta start doing the spare motor up! I gotta read more on engine managment and stuff just lookin for 260hp to the wheels nothing too crazy... Im pretty shure I can get that out of a stock turbo if not maybe a thunderbird turbo? who knows~ All I know is the spare motor is getting bored and balanced new ported head from boport and a 3inch turboback exhuast catless and MAYBE a front mount! NPR or Volvo with piping.. I might rotate the upper intake too and def will get those gutted and ported and a SN95 mustang Throttle body

One of the guys I go 4 wheeling with. Don't know how he controlled it, but he has mentioned it had a variable turbo making 20lbs of boost. I know nothing of turbocharging anything, seeing as I'd rather have a supercharger and I'm not into too much speed anyway. This was back in the mid 90's that he did it.
