baby blue, did you build your engine all yourself? or did you send it away? I am interested in a kit, just having a hard time finding someone to make my ze tougher to with stand more boost. like 10 to 12 psi. Thats all I want......

Since my exhaust had to be modified to get a KLZE to fit, will this be a direct bolt in for the KLZE, KLDE or the normal V6?? Let us know, since I am sure I'll probably want/get one. Also, is the innercooler a custom item or would one from another turbo'd vehicle work??

well like Abe said, the base kit is intercooler piping, exhaust piping and intercooler. As for the other parts these would have to be arranged with Abe if you want them or buy them seperatly

I had the bottom end built with my parts (meaning just labor) by a local shop and did the rest myself.

This should be bolt on for any k-series engine, some minor modification would have to be done depending the intake you got (k8, klze straight, klze curve)
Why did you have to mod the exhaust for the klze ? nothing in the exhaust should have to be modded

date huh ? hmm well this question is probably the most frequant question so far. I have to mod the piping for stock bumper (give me a week or 2 since I'm ni the middle of mid terms and don't have much time right now)
then I'll send them to Abe. Then he has to build them (aournd 15-20 days) then they'll be up for sale.
Maybe when the first kit will come out, a group buy will be organise by Pakfeifercanada (Oscar) since he's the north american distributor !

hope this answer some of your questions

Well not quite the Northamerican distributor,

But yes the Canadian distributor!

Abe, Steve and myself have been speaking in regards to the details surrounding this project. I will post info in regards to the availability as soon as the first prototype (including IC piping) is ready.

I personally think the best option is to have a complete kit made including the turbo, wastegate and some, although these details are still being worked on.

Didn't you look at the pictures?? Its pretty obvious...

Not really, I looked again at the pictures and have no idea on what's leading to what, it just looks like a bunch of pipes to me.

I agree, unless you know whats going on, its confusing a bit.

Yes, it is coming from all 6 exhaust ports

guys look at the second pic I posted on page 1
they sit exactly the same as the engine bay, maybe it'll be more easier to understand

not sure about that one, I still have to check with my friend's mazdaspeed, but if it'll fit stock bumper I don't see why it shouldn't fit the MS
