okay, I guess I can add myself to this list.

I have a 1992 mx-3 ; canadian edition.

I did the mtx swap with an exedy clutch.
(works awesome btw)

EDIT: no it doesn't, it's junk.

factory cd stereo(sic)

EDIT: 10"infinity, mtx amp, kenwood hideaway deck now.

oh yeah, the turbo stuff is what you are interested in I guess :)

t3/t04e ebay turbo
ss autochrome pipes(fit like OJ's glove)
fart can muffler
1st gen DSM BOV
external wastegate 7-8psi(Turbosmart)
K&N air filter
aem UEGO a/f wideband
GReddy boost guage(metric)
Earls AN fittings for oil drainback.
ebay oil feed and drain kit
I think that's it. nothing special, just a rocket car.
(well, it does have the external msd blaster II, and HEI mod too)
Also, I made a custom piggyback fuel control, but I have the MSnS on order.

EDIT: I built and install the Megasquirt. It is awesome.

no more wierd engine problems.

Who said that ebay turbo's are crappy....mine has over 15000kms on it already.

EDIT:20,000 kms

I can't list everything I've done to my motor, but I've done everything possible to prep it for boost...

For boosting, I have a Garrett GT3071R with a twin scroll housing and a custom manifold.

Check out my thread in my signature for pictures of the build from beginning to near the end.

The power gain is great but i really should have done my homework on my engine because i found out it was a really bad motor to begin with and it need to be rebuild so now I'm looking to find a new motor but I wanna stay with the B6de. The funny thing is everywhere i go to find a new motor they tell me i have a B6ZE and that they don't carry this motor. I really don't know what I have. I'm a honda guy that jumped in to Mazda. So I'm a noob to Mazda all together.
