It's called "turbocharged".
I here there are web forums just for that idea alone.

I heard there are some guys out there who put turbos on cars to make them faster, but I don't know how true that is.

my honest suggestion, keep that 88hp motor stock, find u a used egt or what ever and build it while ur still able to drive your car. when the motors built, sell your old motor. problem solved. you have a pretty quick car if its built right, and u had minimal down time with the car

the EGT motor I refered to is a motor out of a Escort GT that had 125 hp. I'm think now what if I could get a 5.0 out of a mustang to fit in there that'll give me a little more yet. the EGT mite be easir to come by though

if u can manage to fit the 5.0 motor in there, more power to u(uber fab work, u might as well buy a 5.0). but i would stick with the egt.

Oh no, not another kid trying to stick a RWD engine in their FWD car...

I've talked about 4 kids out of trying to do this themselves. You're gonna screw it up, keep it like it is, fwd.
