This week we go one step at a time to cover everything you need to know before going to the drag strip. Much of this will apply to the dyno as well.

So cool seeing these videos bought a 1994 Ford ranger XLT 2.3 L running and driving for $200. So motivational makes me want to put a turbo on mine.😂

Oh nice! It's getting hard to find one that cheap now.

Niiiicccee! Went to first autocross event today on 88 n/a 2.3 mustang, the only other mustang there was a beautiful 67 with a big block.. my beater 2.3 was 7 seconds faster

Thanks for the videos. Got me looking for an 80's model ranger to turbo.

Ha nice! Late 80's is even easier to swap than mine.

I'd just like to say that seeing your turbo Ranger has been a huge motivation for me to venture in to turbo 2.3 land. I have a 94 and already am looking to find a short block for it. I'd love to see more content on the Ranger!!

Awesome. The ranger is probably the most fun cheap thing I've done.

I think that the seat belt will come unfastened and the seat belt light will come on and in the event that it does, don't panic, first stomp on the brakes and gas at the same time and snatch the steering wheel towards the center of the track as sharply as possible and hang on, everything should be ok if the truck ever completes its flip cycles at which time if you're upside down try to start the truck so that you can get it to land back on it's wheels and if there's a small fire or a large explosion don't panic just grab your big gulp u got from the convenience store and try to spash it on it and if that fails don't panic just yet just calmly tilt your head as close to your ass and give it a nice little smooch and tell it good bye 😝😆🤪

I have a ranger 1998 I have a 2.5 l I can't find any information on Turbo exhaust manifolds or throttle body systems.. yeah for the 2.5 there's just nothing.. maybe you can help me out thanks

You'd likely have to make something for that. You should at least be able to the exhaust manifold flange to buy to give you a starting point
