why thank u for the plugs i decide to turbocharge the BP and leaving off where ric at racingmazda left off. he decided to go with the 2.0 FS engine and leaveing the BP's alone. so in time i'll be having a turbo sohc and BP. but good luck doing what u want to do.

Will an intercooler kit like this work pretty well?

i wouldn't even bother with a kit. just find an intercooler that will fit nicely behind your bumper. then go to jegs or another similar company and buy some mandrel bent piping (which you will have to hack up to make fit). you will also need the couplers and fittings to connect the piping, and some GOOD vacuum hose for the blow off valve, etc. don't buy the cheap vacuum hoses on ebay (like i did, and they collapse under vaccum). buy some good stuff right away because you will end up buying it later anyway.

buy some real silicone vac lines that have thicker walls. I have some really good stuff I got from a Hydrolic wholesaler...

Silicon is for boobies...lol

I had silcon with super glue and zip ties...kept blowing them apart so I wagged war on them! Used -6AN SS Braided hoses and worm gear hose clamps....no more problems...period!
