Exclamation need turbo/supercharge

I recently purchased an 89 bird with 2.8 6cyl and clearly i need more power and was wondering if anyone knows of a good turbo kit or supercharger available for it... any suggestions for quick power gains would be appreciated as well...

Re: need turbo/supercharge

Trade it in for a V8 model. The money it will require to get you even close to V8 performance with a 2.8 will be grands more than the cost to upgrade to a V8 but if you find a better way please share cause other 2.8 owners have been searching for years. Good Luck.

to make even 245 HP you would have to run close to 25-30 PSI, and that engine would not even take 10 PSI with out going through the whole block and what not. a v-8 swap would be the best option.

You know it's bad when a turbo guy tells you to go for the v-8
