Subbed, I really wanna see the gains when/if this was to done for more of a N/A application, some of the aussie boys (LordWorm & AusOrion) and myself would love to see how it performs overall...
BTW, take your time on developing this, as time always yields perfection

I made a last minute decision yesterday before dropping the plans off at the machine shop, and scaled down the plenum slightly. It'll get some better gains at lower power/boost now than it would have, and we might even get some NA gains from it. Made more sense to make it a little bit more streetable for everyone. It will still flow like crazy though.
Undercut? Sorry not familiar with the term, me's not a welder.

Good choice! I am hoping that will make it more applicable for us NA people.
This is for 505ZOOM: Your hard work is for all Mazda owners everywhere. I really like the fact that you can come on the forums and find intelligent, hard working, insightful people who have the vehicle owners in mind.
I don't have a turbo car yet, however I have plans for the future. I would really like to see the N/A results.
God Bless, from protege owners everywhere.

Yup, had a year long hiatus from it until a month or two ago, but it's back in action now. Not too much longer til she gets built and I get to put all these sweet parts to good use.
Thanks a lot for the kind words, I appreciate it.

Did the second pm help any......lol.......I hope
Yup just replied to it, I see what you are saying now. There is a structural weld underneath the visible one (they are doubled up to fill the gap), and knowing Skip and his work I am sure that the whole thing is solid. Thanks for the clarification though.
Here is a shot of my LSD that he welded for me:

Neatly stacked dimes..........very nice.
505zoom correct me if I'm wrong but magnump5 i'm pretty sure this IM will be better suited for bigger turbos..
Well I do already have an MPi upgraded MSP turbo but I plan on running a GT28RS or GT2871 in the future when I build my motor. Always have to plan ahead...
Can't wait for pics!
I think it will have more of a benefit based on how much boost you run, moreso then the size of the turbo. So this would be more of a high boost mod. But everyone could see good to dramatic gains.
