another one bites the bug.....

make sure you get an oil/coolant cooled T25...they'll last a lot longer. If you want a new T25 let me know and I can flex some connections and get you one pretty cheap.

you'd get it within a week or two. I ordered the turbo for the scooter from them and it took about 6 business days.

Yay ! Found out 88-92 MX6GT injectors are drop in plug and play...310cc injectors...should be plenty enough fuel over my puny 155cc stockers

Found a set on MX6.com for $15

Also found a good SMIC from an MX6GT for $30

I also ordered an Exedy stage 2 clutch for $149 shipped

I'm gonna end up having his car turbo'd for like $1200

IM INSANE !!!

I just ordered my T25 oil feed/drain kit, and T25 waterline kit.....

I'm down to my BPV and intercooler piping....

seeing as how I'm using so many MX6 parts, I might go to the junkyard to see about getting the MX6 BPV and intercooler piping to work...engine sits in the bay the same way, as does the turbo, so if I mount the intercooler in the right spot, it might just work !!!!

Total spent(including shipping)

manifold $375
downpipe $150
Garrett T25 $225
intercooler $40
injectors $15
Exedy Stage 2 Clutch Kit $149
turbo oil line kit $85
turbo water line kit $40

Total = $1079
