If it's a single turbo youll need a ton of stuff about 1800-2500 dollars worth.
headers wastegate, downpipe, intake tubing , lines, blow off valve intercooler, new exhaust, your turbo should be at least a T66 for single or two t3s youll need bigger injectors, new engine management, big fuel, pump, wide band o2 sensor, and a bunch of stuff I forgot.
In my opinion a turbo is too mutch money unless you have an engine built for it. If your car is pretty mutch stock, Id just go with n20 500 dollars and a fuel pump , you can spray a 150 to 200 shot. 200 is a bit mutch but it will take it. Anyway 600 bucks for n20, or 3000 for a turbo you have to set at 9psi max.

you think a rather stock 5.0 could hold a 200 shot? I don't know bout that one man? if it did it wouldnt last that long even with a bigger fuel pump. But nitrous by far is the best bang for the buck power adder 2 me atleast

turbo is the only way to go, does'nt rob power, and no bottles to refill. Heres how to do it for cheap on a 5.0 its ghetto but if you changed a few things around and did it without a flux core welder you could come up with a good looking product in the end that would be very efficent. http://www.homemadeturbo.com/turbo_projects/rs_mustang/ I beleive he has been driving on this setup for nearly a year now. For oil lines I would go with www.stealthmodeperformance.com its says for honda/acura but the lines are pretty much universal
