I started my project 2 1/2 years ago, and I have a 1989 turbo model 13b (without turbo). I have a Ross PSRU and MicroTech ECU. I have a Conversion Concept motor mount, and a great finned aluminum oil pan that I purchased from Perry Mick (don't know who he had manufacture it). The intake manifold is a "wrap-over" manifold of my own design, using a cut-down Mazdatrix intake manifold (4 into 2 runners), with two aluminum tubes going over the top of the engine and a TWM throttlebody with built-in injectors on the cool side of the engine. Engine is stock (no porting, etc). I have a C&R racing aluminum radiator and the stock Mazda oil cooler. I have pictures, of course. Let me know if you would like any pictures, and if so, pictures of manifold, exhaust, oil pan or ???. Take care, and good luck with the injectors.
