before you jump knees deep into this project you should know a few things.

Turboing a engine that was originally naturallly aspirated isnt the greatest idea. NA (naturally aspirated) engines are made a certain way and they are very different from a turbo engine. You will most likely need to address fuel and timing issues that come with a turbo engine.

1. More air means more fuel. I dont know a lot about the 4cyl stang, but I highly doubt the fuel system is capable of handling boost. If you dont address this, you will most likely run into detonation issues and destroy your motor.

That along with many other things need to be considered. My suggestion is that you do some more research, this can definitly be done, but it take a little work.
