2.0 t turbo in v6 possible?

Just a question I was watching a video of a v6 2015 mustang with a ford factory turbo and it had me curious could we possibly do something like that with our v6's?

I doubt it would be any less of a hassle (probobly more so) than any aftermarket turbo kit (if anyone would make one) ...both in difficulty of install and cost.

What you should be asking is if we can convert the LGX to an LGW .... cheaply ...obviously.

That also seems unlikely or we'd have sellers offering the parts already.

Agreed with Cellsafemode.....yea turbo kits these days sometime are universal of sorts, you can pretty much find a turbo for any car.

his other option, that may be a while if at all....

even moreso with the 2019 possibly having a refresh... makes you wonder will they do the same with the engine as well. the 2010-2011 was the LLT that ranged from 304 the first year, 312 the second year. then 2012 was the LFX with 323 <---hp ratings.

its always possible they give the engine a bit of a nudge during refreshes, and doing so would prob rais compression or the tune be more aggressive. just things to factor in when doing a turbo build or conversion.
