^ Oops.

[Mazda_Powered]

ya same #450 are pretty stiff...but hey it's all coming together lol

[Mazda_Powered]

well she's in storage now lol, car was pissing me off too much!

626 is out to play now though so I have something to tinker with still muhaha

[Mazda_Powered]

Well over the winter time I'll be parting out the turbo kit on the car...why you ask? Less headaches mainly lol, car's been nothing but issues trying to figure out the fueling issue, and she's just way to beat up to be a clean looking car...would need twice the amount of body work the 626 does lol, she just needs a few dings and a respray...

I was thinking of asking $750 for the complete bpt setup not including the oil pan and VAF/filter combo....think that's too much??

vj20 turbo/manifold/lines and fittings - seen go for 275-300
shorty divorced downpipe with extra flange - 120 probably
inlet pipe w/ bov recirc- 50
outlet pipe- 50
fmic with pipes & BOV- 300
325cc injectors - 50
bp26 ecu - 100
boost gauge - 30

That'd be the individual prices if I split it up...does that all seem fair?? I don't want ppl hastlin me over crazy prices once I get things going here lol

[wgnths]

DoooD! why give up sooo soon lol. Should grab a standalone like MS and it will do you good.

Otherwise if you insist, those prices seem right on if you ask me.

Jack, can you post the pictures, that would be nice!

I'm not giving up lol just going a different route more or less, car will be driven more often if it's a daily driver...and this way I wouldn't feel guilty about doing a KL or FE swap on it down the road lol...however if I dumped $$$ into MS and all the other junk I wanted it would have lost me even more money down the road lol...

This way I can spend less time fixing Protege issues, and address the 626 lol

Jack, can you post the pictures, that would be nice!

Pictures of the turbo kit? This build thread (my build thread lol) is full of them start to finish! I'd just scroll back from this page and you'll find the latest updates.

Your not the only one feeling that way, but think about it twice though because you might regret it since you did alot of work on it.

[mazda1993]

Man i want your protege if you sell it! :p

[FE3-323]

jack will regret it. as son as the boost itch comes........

[concealer404]

Needs more supercharged KL.

If my Protege was as clean looking as your 323s outside I'd probably continue on lol, but it needs heavy amount of work to make it straight and lay down a paint job $$$$$$ lol

626 *cough cough*

Needs more supercharged KL.

possibly lol...going to get the car running on MS first thing and ditch the distributor from the hopeful sale of the BPT goodies then I'd really like to find someone to make me some KL exhaust flanges so I can make something fancy

[FE3-323]

im telling ya jack. its not the same.

[Mazda_Powered]

What do you mean it's not the same? lol if I boost the 626 that would be some good fun in my mind...

[The Pile]

dood boosting a KL is never a bolt in affair... Trust me ive been down this road before like (**** it ill get something else that will be easier and faster) and it NEVER happens.. might as well stick with the protege and fix the issues.. all u really need is a EMS

especially supercharging.... thats just a waste of money
