Default 2.3l turbo kits

Okay so I don't want to or don't have the time to swap in a different motor, But I would like to look into putting a turbo on my 2.3l ranger... I've seen kits for under $1,000 like this one http://www.xs-power.com/ford-turbokits-2.htm


My question to you all is this one even worth it and if it isn't does anyone know of one that is a good quality kit for these trucks?

----------

Also I've looked in my area and I'm unable to find any turbo coupes in my area

You'll want bigger injectors , 90 MAF, or u can find a turbo thunderbird coupe and use everything from that

As I said in the original post there aren't any turbo coupes around my area, I basically need to know wether or not that kit will be a total waste of money or not.... The turbo I know won't be that great but I'd use it while I saved some cash for a better one

Don't buy a kit. Most of them are Chinese junk. The header in that kit will crack without fail. More information needed on your truck. Year? Goals? Where you want the powerband to be, etc
