Ford rangers/explorers are notorious for getting the the throttle cable stretched out. putting a zip tie around the end of the cable to shorten it is known as the 50 cent 50hp mod. Will check that when the car get's dropped off thursday.

I promise that I am not interested in turbo's for hp though. I really am only interested in adding one if it will help Fuel efficiency.

Okay, I'm going to try to pin you down old mechanic. How many lbs of boost can I run without changing internals?

Would I get any mpg increase at that boost or a lesser boost?

What common junkyard turbo would be best for my Fuel effiency application? Fabricating up a manifold to make it fit is not an issue, and these old fintails have lots of room under the hood for routing, so could use whatever you guys recommend for optimum mpg. I am guessing it wont be off of a 300td mercedes, because of the engine size/hp difference.
