Alright! I had some questions concerning BUILDING ( not swapping) a t/c'd engine for my 2.3l ranger. I'm looking for serious power gains and I'd rather not get junkyard/used parts, I'd rather buy new parts. I'd just like to know everything I need from ECM to the correct fuel pump. Thanks!

My best suggestion is to join up and start reading. Theres plenty of builds over there from mild to wild and will give you a good idea of what you're looking at to get to the level you want to be at.
