Definetly time to do something about the turbos, I suggest going single or buying

a used set of 99+ twins.

BNR is a no no!

I'm not ready to go single yet.



Is JT-Imports the best bet for a set of used 99+ twins?

If I do go with 99 turbos are there any mods that need to be done for them to work properly? Can you just bolt them on with a '94 ecu?

So far I have only found them used at JT-Imports for $525.95. http://www.jt-imports.com/Mazda_FD_JDM_Parts.htm



New they are quite a bit more.

http://www.jt-imports.com/Mazda_FD_JDM_Parts.htm $3100.95

http://66.216.67.51/product.asp?0=220&1=374&3=775 $3050.00



I'm not looking for new right now. I have to get my engine running first. I'm thinking about some used 99 twins from Jason or having them rebuilt for around the same cost.



How is cheapturbo.com? Do you get what you pay for?
