HAHA, I snuck into a local shop where there is a NICE klze mx3 that is getting a turbo and FMIC etc. fitted, noone knows about the car but I took some spy pics... Might be interesting considering where the turbo is mounted...its different. He also has a full FX designs kit and a INSANE stereo...Enjoy.
Any questions? post and I will try to answer.

Looks like a pretty small turbo.. it dosent look much bigger than a stock gtx turbo it should still give good power though...
I was looking at his pipes thinking how he got all that mounted on there then I realized that he has his bumper support taken off.. It works for the time being but get in a little fender bender and all that aluminum will be crushed like a tin can.. I never even gave it any thought until I got in a small accident with mine because I remember thinking about taking mine out. If that wasent there the car would be written off no doubt..
Looks cool though.. Im intrested in how much power it will make.
Its no one on this forum? Strange... He must be one of those guys that comes on as a guest and takes info without giving anything back.
93 MX3, BP, Haltech E6X, Bully Six Puck Clutch, Pauter Rods, Wiseco Pistons, Port and Polish, Turbonetics T3/T4 Ball Bearing turbo and a partridge in a pear tree.
haha kubis is stoked! man yea its a t25 off a 96 eclipse....I know the owner and he has never been on this site...the turbo setup was done by the shop and with a little hlep from me..he is only gonna push abot 5 psi on the ZE cause of the compression...also, the dude who owns it owns a bodyshop so if he crazhesse he can fix..
u think it will choke? We'll have to see i am not to sure whats gonna happen there. I personally thought he sohulda went for a t3/t4 but i guess they wanna try this..
Yea..weird eh...well he went into the shop and asked them what was available. and the company he got his motor from (me 2 here right quick) installed if for him i think with the proper VAF and ECU combo etc. He doesnt know mechanics lol this setup is done by the shop...for really cheap i must add (2K CAD) lol, I dont think it will last.

How do people find out about swaps but never visited Mx-3.com?
I knew about the swap when I bought my car in 2000. That was before I even knew about this site. I did some researching at some jdm engine places while buying an engine for a friends civic
