Being built at Outrageous Kustoms

I'll start by saying that i know its not everyones style to put this motor in a Ford or to lay body on BIG wheels, but i know what i have in mind for the finished product will amaze some people hopefully. I know its a little rough right now but it has undergone some bigtime mods. Hopefully everyone will check back from time to time to see the progress.
I have a lot of respect for all custom vehicles, no matter what style of modifications are done. Why?...Because they are original. Thanks for checking out my ride....

If my performance mods rating is low, i dont understand that, fitting this motor into a Ranger has been a lot of work(plus the turbo)...i guess 330+ RWHP and non MASSIVE tire spinning torque isnt cool enough for some people who don't like imports...
PROJECT- 22Below - complete by ???? 2008
Interior coming along...

Remounted,almost dragging intercooler!and new lights

TURBO almost done...



This started out as a 2001 Ford Ranger XLT, straight from the showroom to my garage. Then i picked up a mini-truckin magazine and all hell broke loose. It started out nice and simple in 2002, i picked up some 20z and had my truck shaved of a few parts and bagged. But was that enough? NO...So i have set off to get my truck on the cover of a magazine. Now its bodydropped and sitting on 22s with 255-30-22 Nitto tires. The engine and transmission swap is from a 2001 Honda S2000, which is in the process of a turbo install.
