I want to turbo my 3.0 automatic but I need some help before I do, what size turbo do you recommend would be best on a 3.0? Mine is a 2003 edge. I'll be boosting 5-7 psi and changing the old torque to yield head bolts to standards. Has anybody else done this to a 3.0? Some pics of your exhaust to the turbo would be appreciated! Also where would I get my oil feed from?
 
Check out and ask down in the Forced induction section. The guys who frequent that area don't come up to General Discussion as often and will have MUCH better info than anyone else on the site.
 
A complete kit is not cheap. I see them on Ebay. You can go to this site and see what Tom has for you. He makes the 3.0 kits. He has a very goood reputation as well. Expect to pay MONEY for a kit from anywhere. V8 is the better thing to do if you really want some HP.

Dude, I know we all love our Rangers to death (heck, I even named the dog after mine) but if any of us could afford Morana parts do you really think we'd be driving Rangers?
 
V8...more power...3.0 is not a great performing motor. Turbo kits are not cheap. If you want more power for a great price, drop in a V8.
 
i think morana just has stuff for the ranger to say they have it. they probably make their money with the mustang stuff more than anything.
 
or a 4.0, direct drop in.
 
I considered trying to custom fab one, but I decided against it. Once the 3.0 goes, which might be a long time, there is going to be a 5.0 residing in the engine bay.
 
All good replies, I have considered a 5.0 swap but I wonder how difficult it is o squeeze into the rangers space
 
There are a bunch of people that have dropped a 5 oh into their newer rangers, and they fit like a glove.

Do a search here for 5.0 swap. Lots of info there, Bro.
