if this is your first time turbocharging a vehicle, I highly recommend you do some research outside of this forum on the basics of how everything functions.

Things to consider:
-A stock FSDE is not a boost happy engine, boost higher than 10psi will almost guarantee a thrown rod. (even at 10 psi without a good tune is questionable)

-The Mazdaspeed Protege turbo components bolt right on

-make sure to get an SSAFC(or some type of EMS/Piggyback), Wideband, and boostguage with whatever turbo setup you decide to install.

Read the sticky at the top of this section and all the other ones. Any question you have will be answered just search for your self and spend a few days reading. Yes, days.

What I've always wanted are instructions or a FSM about how to actually install everything. I've never seen that anywhere on these boards. Turbocharging is something I want to do too sometime but have no clue how.

Again read the sticky top of this page if you can't do it based off those instructions you don't need to do it your self

All I see are part numbers with a few suggestions for parts. There's nothing specific like factory torque settings or anything? Mazda never had a FSM for their turbo set-up?

You can look up the torque specs of the msp only thing you will be bolting up is manifold turbo an down pipe
