umm well that motor is pretty uncommon in stangs SVO only if memory works right (never does) ya a t3/4 or T4 is good turbo for that motor. I think its pretty commly tuned in tunderbird turbos.

Some late 70's-early 80's Cobra's may have had a 2.3T (not entirely sure, though). The stats on the motor vary significantly with the year. Between about 140 HP and 210 HP, I think. The '85.5 SVO had about 210 HP. Thats quite a bit for a 2.3L engine. On a HP per litre basis, it must be one of the more potent engines Ford ever put in a production car. '87 and '88 Turbo Coupes had 190 HP, 240 ft.lbs. Torque. Whether or not an intercooler was used on a given model seems to be what is responsible for the bulk of the HP differences.
Do you have a 2.3T or are you planning to build/install one?
