Pictures of my turbo conversion

Well it begins. Still have many things to do and im waiting for many parts to arrive, but here is where it starts.

Have a greddy FMIC and turbo on its way, as well as waiting for my housings to be done (porting with judge ito street port templates).

Usings a RA rebuild kit with mazda seals and springs..

Just got my seats re upholstered with new leather, as well as i got a new steering wheel.

Many more updates within a week or two.

Need any parts

Looks good, sir. Always nice to start with pretty much a blank drawing board.

do you have a good used stock turbo? Nice car too, I thought I had good seats, but yours are a little bit better.

I had them re covered custom taylored at a local upholstry shop. Cost me 575 for both seats to be done.. They are far better then they used to be. Soft leather rocks.
