Alright I need help!!

I'd be skeptical on taking the advice from people with thrown together Proteges.

so may i ask why your talking s*** about my car?

as it clearly reads he said 2500 for machine work....a typo now that theman pointed it out, but still dude wtf
 
Alright well I finally made up my mind about Turboing, I've been going back and forth in deciding whether to staying N/A or go Turbocharged for months and just can’t stand it so I'm going to start my build for the turbo. Thanks to everyone's help posting on my thread I know what I need to do and get. I will be posting pictures and will put a check list to show my progress and how it’s going. Can’t wait to get started!
Thanks for the help:KrayzieFox, Metallic36, mp3-79bronco, Blueprotegelx, CulRidr

I'm thinking about a MS6 maybe so you should just buy my MP3-T. Uber rare and it's way faster cuz it's yellow ;)

Haha I love my Blue MP3 to much plus it being my first car but for the record I almost did buy a yellow MP3 but some guy got there a hour before I did and got it, I was so pissed. To think of it I've never seen any pictures of your fast yellow MP3

intake and filter or you can modify any aftermarket N/A one. Not needed but very nice

man i feel sorry for you deciding to change out windage trays while the motors in!

i just changed mine out on the new motor while it was outa the car and i cant imagine doing it while its in!...

theres two small 10mm bolts inbetween the engine and transmission so you have to unbolt the engine from the tranny and then seperate them....(not fun ive changed trannys going on the third time lol)

honestly i wound just do the tapped oil pan and be done with it...i can sell you one cheap...then just sell the windage tray and use the money for other stuff
 
I'll be alright lol, I know its a really good way to get a clean flow of oil and it will be nice to have it on.
Late to ask but do I need to get the mani machined to get it to fit or will it bolt right up?
 
ya i just went ahead and did mine while the engine was out. i recommend getting the factory msp oil cooler too...you should of seen all the caked oil in my old engine... but i got one now going on the new engine. plus my turbo isnt watercooled so it made the oil alot hotter lol

Damn! I saw one just sell too. Would I be cool with just a oil cooler core I could put together my self?

I'm confused? I need the factory MSP oil cooler or are you saying you just recommend? Because I know this was already brought up in my thread but would I 'need' it or could I just buy the universal oil cooler from Protege Garage?
