Well the turbo II I picked up for $2000 and the install including front plate conversion and all of the wiring cost $1500. Not bad for a damn fast car. As of right now I have about 6 g's into it.

Looking good. Now it's time for a front mount intercooler and get a fan shroud, it will help with cooling.

What are the dimensions on the fmic and where did you source it. I'm looking for one, but I'm looking for one that is 12" tall and has 3" in/outs.

Nice job on the pod, good to see quality work. Fwiw, the 2nd gen ones are a close enough fit. A little shaping with a heat gun and they fit great.

Thanks, Its about 7 1/4"s tall and 2 3/4"s wide and 24"s long. Mine has 2" in/outlets. It came with the 2nd gen when I bought the motor so I don't know where It came from.
