i find it hard to believe that you checked them all out and found nothing - however, if you say so ...

well the two that readily come to mind that would be fairly close to you are RotaryShack (Cali) and Turblown (Arizona). i don't know Robert (RotaryShack)personally, but he seems to be good guy (we've communicated on the forum) and it's a fact that he knows his ****! for Turblown, i met Elliot a few years ago and he is good people. he knows his ****, too.

you may also want to check out Twins Turbo (Cali), although they are not on the board ads, i can pretty much vouch for Eric. i knew him and i've done business with him in the distant past. he knows his ****, too.

i have nothing against any of the other vendors on the board, but these were just the ones that i could think of that are at least kind of close to you. it's your choice.

as for phone numbers, they all have websites, so just look them up.

for other little bits and pieces, check Summit Racing and ATP Turbo.

it really depends on how much you wanna spend or how much you are willing to fab yourself. You can go to aspec and I'm sure they could hook you up with a single turbo "kit" that would come with everything needed for the swap but of course your going to PAY for it. If you have the money then that would really be the way to go as peicing one together can be time consuming and if your not good at making oil/water feed return lines etc... then maybe it's beyond your realm of expertise. I can't really be of much help as I'm still using an s5 block (would love to go re one day) so I'm not quite sure what exhaust manifold works with the re lower intake manifold.

actually it occurred to me after i posted that maybe you're just asking parts. not necessarily someone to do the conversion for you. if that's the case, then here goes:

oil lines: can be purchased pre-made from Racing Beat and Mazdatrix if you are using stock parts in stock locations. otherwise, get all the stuff you need from Summit and make it yourself.

coolant lines: find a local source or check Summit.

manifolds: you'd need to say what turbo you plan to run, but in addition to the places i mentioned in the last post, you can look to A-Spec.
