At this time, there is only one bolt-on solution.
Loooong wait times, however.

Would it be possible for me to pay you extra $$$ to have faster delivery of your kit?

Yeah, what he said.

poor stealth...hang in there bud!

babyboyx8 11-19-2008 02:24 AM

yea i was thinking about his kit...but i bought my acessport from him... and i emailed him for help with my AFR going all over the place and he never replied just tired of writing emails and no help...so i dont want to buy any thing from him...unless he decides to check his email and give me a hand with an item i bought directly from him

babyboyx8 11-19-2008 02:27 AM

I know i will have to do some modifications to fitting mounted and other shit...jw if there are experts out the that think the greddy kit could use a little bigger turbo if so what do u recoment i look at

It's not the kit that needs a bigger turbo, but what your car and hp/tq range need to aquire that goal.

I can put a T88 in to treplace the Mitsu Td06-18g (greddy turbo) because it's bigger. however it will be pointless. it's naot matched to he flow characteristics of the Renesis..

You will want to stay with Garrett 3071R.

No. Not really. Its not a motivation thing, its pure physics.

Did you use the right format? (Did you follow the directions sent to you and posted in the "AccessPORT Discussion" thread on the first page?)

babyboyx8 11-19-2008 12:07 PM

yes i did i read it about 5 times tryin to see what i misssed till i got mad and unpluged and un maried the damn thing...on idle i got the right afr but if i step on it it ges down to high 12 or low 13 and it flashed red... for my car the first base map worked the best...the map that you start with because it came me short term fuel trim average of 0 but it does go up and down on idle

MazdaManiac 11-19-2008 12:34 PM

So, what's the problem?

Rotore_787 11-19-2008 07:31 PM

im still a newb with my car in general but i kinda get what the TW is sayin. and yes it is similar to MMs upgrade but there are factory turbos and aftermarket ones that could provide the same performance or even better, just you have to do alot of research on what size turbine and look at its dynos and what applications its mostly used with.

But those are just my thoughts like i said im not an expert im still learning. :)

Hmm.. are you sure?

Throw money at any problem and it can usually be solved.

Lol. Its would have to be a LOT of money - enough to pay someone else to do it.
Last I checked, it was a $1k job.
I do it for about $180.
So, you do the math.

I would pay $2800 for your kit if you could get it to me quickly.
