Hey /o/. I posted a few days ago asking what car to use to dick around and drift in. long and short version is I live on a 45 acre plot of land, and there is 5 or so acres patch of perfectly flat densely packed dirt. I found an unmolested foxbody for pretty cheap that only needed new plugs and an alternator to get running. So, now I have a foxbody that is in decent shape that I will use only to drift around on this dirt with, as it's RWD, and got some pretty gud torque on the low end, while being fairly light for what it is.
Next step is modifying it. I don't want to drop a lot of money on it, as this is only a shits and giggles car. Ordered a hydraulic ebrake and starting to rip apart the interior to get any unneeded parts out. What do you guys think I should put in?

p.s: this is basically "Ebay Special: The car". So a $200 ebay turbo is totally viable.

The turbo, unlike the block is replaceable and is not essential for engine functions.

Op just go to the junkyard and get some heads and an intake off an explorer.

Termi is actually correct about the heads and intake in this case. This is, however, assuming the car has a MAF.

Chop the mufflers off, obviously. Explorer heads and intake. Look into a cheap way of lifting the rear end a little for the raked look that foxbodies wear really well.
