MAP Stage 2 LR 2.4L Build
I'm very excited to see how the IX turbo performs as well. I predict that it will be an instant wall of torque that will quickly drop off. It should prove to be a fun street car!
I think I've finally accumulated everything I need to get the car back together! MAP has drained my account

Lesson learned: You really don't need that much injector, and, above a certain size injector, the run awful on pump gas. Ie. I bought FIC 1650s and returned them for FIC 1250s after learning that the 1650s will be terrible on pump gas.

As for MAP, they're awesome. Adam's pricing is always incredible, and he's always willing to make suggestions on setups rather than just taking orders. They really take care of their customers.

I'm finally home from school for the summer, so updates will be made frequently.
First note, here is some information I've gathered about venting your crankcase from the Balance Shaft Inspection Hole in the front of the block:
The bolt size in question is a 10mm x 1.25.
For those of us who don't have space for a straight fitting, I'm utilizing a 10mm x 1.25 banjo bolt, to a 10mm to -6AN banjo fitting, then routed to my catch can.
I can't find the banjo fitting anywhere online, but the fitting guy I use made one for me. To get that fitting you can contact JNZ Tuning, and he'll be able to get you one.
Just thought I'd share this, as it saves quite a bit of space over a 10mm x 1.25 to -6AN straight fitting, and for those running bigger turbos, this is crucial.
I'll throw some pictures up when I get my block back!
Second, I picked up some sweet stuff today:
First, my custom JMF Catch Can. I had him make me a large catch can with no sight gauge, with two -10AN fittings (Valve Cover), and one -6AN fitting (BS Inspection Hole). They're in order so the lines should be easy to mount. I'll mount this somewhere near the fuse box.

Second, my custom JMF 3" Speed Density Intake:

Third, my Oil Filter Housing Turbo Oil Feed Kit that I made for HALF THE PRICE OF FP'S KIT. I got this through Paul at JNZ Tuning. It utilizes an FP Filter, but he pre-made all of the lines and saved me half of the outrageous price FP charges.
I wanted to put together a turbo feed line kit, but didn't want to pay the price of FP's, so I made my own FOR HALF THE PRICE, while still using FP's filter.
I had some stuff already, but here are the majority of the part numbers for yah'll! This was through Paul at JNZ Tuning, BTW. (Ignore the -10AN fittings on the invoice).

Here's a shot of the complete kit:

So, if you're into saving money like I am, I made this for about $130 total, as compared to $250. All lines/fittings are of great quality.
Save on!
I finally got my 60K kit, and all the random gaskets I'll need to throw this bad boy back together, so expect the motor to be in soon!

Thanks man. Now if only someone would let me do some work for them in exchange for a T3 turbo setup!
