A Drop-Top Fox-Body 1992 Ford Mustang That's Hooked on Boost! - Mustang 360
Brian Egeland of Forestburgh, New York, was just a teenager when he purchased this 1992 Mustang 5. 0 convertible from northeast New Jersey. Brian must have had a little more self-control than your typical teenager with Mustang keys in his hand because, on any day when the weather was deemed less-than-beautiful, he wisely decided that his Mustang would forgo daily driving duties and... While the Mustang aged like a fine wine, Brian picked up daily driver after daily driver, from other Mustangs to turbocharged imports. Believe it or not, he credits a Mitsubishi Eclipse with getting him hooked on turbochargers. Brian set out in 1999 by initially ordering the Outlaw Twin Turbo kit that Brian says “never fit right,” so he got to work learning how to weld and fabricate. Brian couldn’t stand the lack of drivability with his Mustang, and the original T5 transmission’s Third gear finally exited stage left before the original block cracked from the crank to the camshaft. Brian didn’t have the funds to rebuild the motor, so he sold the turbo kit and located a “junkyard special” 5. 0L. The 302 was quickly outfitted with the same Trick Flow heads, E303 cam, and Cobra intake, with the addition of a supercharger. Source: www.mustangandfords.com
