3. A comparison side by side shows there may be an issue with the new one, if I can ever get the old one off (I already bent one of the adjustment wrenches trying to get it off).

1. Josh's suspension bushings
2. BC's exhaust issues
3. My turbo
4. P-Rod's squirrelliness on the highway (and no, a 4-door AWD car will not cure this)
5. Nic's fenders (possibly) and exhaust
6.
Anyone else have anything to add to the Mx list?

You sure can Johny, our maintenance crew will be notified immediately. However, due to a backlog, it may take a while. LOL I just put that list together in order of rememered too, not first come first serve. Although I'm trying to get my turbos on quickly so I may only be able to help AFTER I get my turbos on, but I don't expect anyone to help me with mine (I'm pretty sure Josh will though haha).
I talked to a guy in Statesville/Greenville just now about getting his turbos for $250. He said he got 293hp at 12psi on these turbos and there is a small crack on the manifold (depending on where exactly and how bad will make the determination). I'll be getting the pics shortly to my email. He already posted them in this thread, maybe you guys can look and tell me if it's worth it...

i sold mine in a little worse shape for almost the same. mine had two cracks. they ran fine. i don't know how easy that would be to weld. i doubt you will find used FD turbos without cracks in the manifold. the shipping along on those things is close to $50 haha. try to work him down, it never hurts to ask.

I was planning on going to pick them up, so shipping is out the window. Yeah I've heard cracks on the manifold are inevitable.

It's no big deal Nic, I haven't helped Josh yet (mostly because he's done it during the week when I was working) and he's helped me a few times. It's not about me helping you without you helping me, it's just about teaming up and knocking this stuff out, know what I mean? It would be cool to have you in on the fun though bro.

are you pre-op or post-op. i mean i can understand going through the change, i wouldn't want to be a 6'4'' woman either. hahah
You know that might be an interesting idea for that car. Would make more sense than trying to turbo it and when it did go I was thinking about doing something other than a stock rebuilt engine in it.

Oh, and I guess I'm pre-op cause I still seem to have all the funcitoning equipment...well, that depends on what exactly you're asking, whether I've switched TO man already or not, haha.

Maybe...

in this case post-op would be man parts. haha.
i would never expect you to do my bushing swap. hell i would probably do most of the work. just have you there for advice, and pry bar/BFH duty. I would like to have them done by mid-June. I am going to do the mazda drivers event at VIR. use my DGRR money towards that, plus it will give me time to get my suspension done.
Let's start tech days next month! Anybody opposed please speak up, since I don't want to make it seem as though this is the law
I think it would be a good idea though.
