Nah man, I knew what ya meant. I was just being a smart ***.

I know Ryan (moremazda) has done it, and wrote a nice write up on here about it too...I also know that Coldy13 is working on his. Other than that, thats all I can tell you.

I'm kinda interested in this too, as maybe a turbo will allow me to upgrade the power on one of my FBs without buying an SE. I just passed up a rather nice SE for $2400.

Hey knight, I'll be at Schlitterbahn this weekend. I am trying to buy a little summer place in town since I get out there every few weeks. Oh and I also have the T-II upper, lower manifolds and the low impedence injectors you seek.

well, I know he's not gettin married... last I checked, he was working landscaping and working at a bowling alley to try to finish paying for his rx turbo project. so, he pretty much doesn't have much time left for the computer... Weekends, he's up at my place workin on his car.
