Wasn't sure where to post this....

I'm finally getting the parts I need to Turbo my Truck!

I'm going to be running the 2.3T from an 88 Turbo-coupe, The stock ranger M5oD trans, 4.10 gears/Posi, With 30x9.50R15 Tires.

I'm not looking to make a race truck, by any means, just something that will keep up with a few more cars on the road. I understand that most people slam their Turbo Rangers, but I don't like lowered vehicles, That's why I have the leveling coils and bigger tires.
Will that combination work out alright or am I going to run into some sort of issue? Any suggestions/information will be much appreciated.

Thanks
-Davis

I think you would be fine especially with the 4.10's and a 5 speed ( I hear the autos suck with 4 bangers) Heck I run 31's with 3.73's and a 2.8L which probably has a bit less power then yours just fine.

As far as acceleration, Do you think it'll be decent?

I don't think it would be too bad at all.
There are plenty of people that run 2.3L's with 31" tires and 3.73 gears all day with out any problems. So you should be just fine with 30's (not much bigger than stock at all) and 4.10's.

And once the turbo spools up, you will have mroe than enough power to move.

Oh yeah just fine, I would say.
