I spent about an hour last weekend doing some rough tuning on my new turbo setup to get it ready for a nice baseline run at the drag strip. On my first run, I ran an 11.64 @118 mph. Boost was at 15 psi. This is an almost identical time I ran with my seq twins and the M2 ecu. The only thing is I feel a whole lot safer with this setup because I know my A/F ratios and timing are safe. Here is my current setup:

Street ported motor
Garrett T04E with a 60-1 wheel
.6 comp/.96 turbine on center
Williams Manifold
Haltech E6K
550/1680 cc inj
M2 Medium IC
11.5 lb flywheel
UO underdrive pulley

I believe they are all the relevent mods

Why would you want something like that?&nbsp Bragging rights?&nbsp The reason the inners ones are only offered is because these take the most heat and abuse.&nsbp The outer ones are not sitting adjacent to the combustion chamber and live a realitively easy and cool life comparies to their inner cousins; this is the reason Mazda uses two different material compositions for inner versus outer.

No Ted, not for bragging rights. When my car overheated coolant was getting by the outer seals. Although the outter seals seam to have survived, it got me thinking that if this ever happened again I would rather have teflon seals in the motor. Seems to me they would be more durable than rubber ones. I was simply inquiring about them and found out that they do exist. This upgrade would just be one more thing to make the car a bit more durable in the case that the engine would overheat.
