I have been thinking about turbos for the Escort. I decided that I wanted to keep it in the family though, so my first thought was a Garret GT3782 off of a 6.0 Powerstroke
Here are the stats from the ford-trucks forum.
compressor side:
IND whl = 59.10mm
EXD whl = 82.00mm
Trim = 52
A/R = 0.54
turbine side:
Whl dia = 72.50
Trim = 84
A/R = 1.12
Let me know if this is even a possible choice. 
The converstation is everywhere Hardline! I am seeing that the asymmetric cam is the way to go. I will probably have to get a custom cam from Crower, but that is fine by me.
I will not cut and lifters either, that sounds scary! I wasn't going to do it, just joking around with a way to achieve what Russell (pgfpro) has. |
With the Cd you have now that would be a good choice with a 2.0 L engine, if you somehow get it down to a 1.0 L then I would go much smaller.
If you drop your Cd down from what it is a sub-0.20 Cd then you will just use the turbo gain some HP when not in lean burn. So in this case i would run a much smaller turbo.
