What do you have at the moment?? even a GT35/40 will require a spacer on the factory exaust manifold to fit. If its your first car and you have never experianced a strong VL turbo id work your way up. They can be a dangerous thing. A quality intercooler and maybe a highflow that will bolt into the factory position would be a starting point, a 3inch exaust can be bought off the shelf and Microtech would be great with some mazda injectors and a good fuel pump and you will see around 270rwkw and 11sec. For a first car thats decent I think! :D

what u offeren me if u want pics u will hav 2 wait 2i pik it up?
yeh mate I doubt your internals will handle a GT45. ACL pistons arnt so strong, seem to loose there tops at moderate boost, even without detonation. Best to sell it I think and get your setup running properly. With the mods you have I cant see why you wouldnt get 230rwkw, your stock injectors and pump will be the limmiting factor.
