Small update. I spoke to a local shop, Zhookup in Springfield MO and finally nailed down a time to get the TransGo Kit installed, IN JANUARY?! They are so busy that this was the earliest they could fit me in, oh well. I want a shop that knows what they are doing and are familiar with the platform so I'll be patient. I normally do all of my own work but after looking at the valve body and having to drill into it, no thanks....
Also, I sold that little Mazda for a huge profit, its really hard for a car guy to drive a car he doesn't like lol. I bought a 2000 Acura TL to daily instead, much better lol. Either way, figured I'd get this updated since I got a couple PM's/texts asking where I've been lol. FYI, still compiling the parts for the rear mounted turbo setup. So far I have a Borg Warner S300 turbo, Tial 46mm waste gate, real HKS SSQV BOV, trans, oil and PS coolers and lines. Tons of things to find still and most importantly, I need to figure out what I'm going to tune it with. I'm leaning towards MAP ECU3 or Megasquirt. I'm just not content with UpRev unless someone can sell me on it...

Man, I'm so back and forth on what to use for tuning. Practically all of the Z guys have used Uprev for FI without any problems but most everyone here thinks its trash. Maybe Uprev isn't the best at NA but it seems to be great for boost.. Idk what to do
Borg Warner S300 66/73. Dropping it off to get rebuilt, balanced, the hot side ceramic coated and clean up/re-polish the compressor housing. The most expensive parts have now all been bought, its all downhill from here.
Here's a great update for me but a bad update for my car.. I stopped by my local bike shop to upgrade my mountain bike pedals and ended up ordering another bike altogether. I'm gonna hold off on parts for a few weeks, cant really justify spending a ton on both lol. It'll be assembled and delivered late next week sometime.
but to notice the bike thought I'd share a bike I painted for Conor mcgreggor
Fresh out of the oven Final assembly Decals
Installed LED's on the entire car, looks pretty clean and really updates everything. Also painted the housings on the headlights. I'm not a fan of all the halo mods and random colors etc so I kept it minimal and just blacked out the housings and painted over the amber reflector. Looks great!
