Largely due to the issues of the car and everything that was involved I am extremely happy with the results that I have reached.
The Prior setup was a JWT 530 setup 412 WHP on Injected's Heart-breaker...
I have been holding onto Sasha's first turbo kit to ship out. His customer service and attention to detail is above many of the OEMs and other companies I have dealt with. Not to mention Sasha has customized this based on my recommendations, larger 44mm wastegate, tial BOV, 3" Dump.
The car was buttoned up yesterday and has been sitting @ Wright Motorsports for almost a month now. You all may know Wright as 350Evo, the original 350Evo before the brand was sold off, as well as the racecars.
Dropoff:






I picked Wright to do the work mainly because Injected has been so busy, that I was too impatient to wait any longer. Both shops have been in on the build, Injected has tested and trouble shot my electronics issues and has been extremely helpful throughout the build process.
Wright Motorsports designed and tuned the suspension my Z initially copying their grand-am setup closely and during the NA days I was setup perfect for those HPDEs that would pop up. Now the Z has become too much of a liability to track without a significant investment.
The Current Setup: Hope this helps others deciding on a turbo kit...
The guys Wright have worked on so many setup over the years and their testimony says it all!
This kit fits "like OEM"... The instructions were absolutely better than anything else out there for any aftermarket kits.
The Quality of welds and materials is on par with some of their exotic parts, ie. Tubi, Hyperflow, Capristo.
The best comment was that it took them 2 weeks of cursing my car to get the JWT off and figured out and 1 afternoon to install the BP kit.
The next step is getting my Haltech back, and pinning out the harness to track down the mysterious sensor that is bad.
I will post more pics and videos as time allow. Along with a full spec list and dyno sheet upon final completion.

Good stuff Don. Glad you finally got to put the turbo kit on.
When is dyno time?
EDIT: I can't remember the hot side on that turbo, I know it is a 6262 T4. Was it .96 or .81 turbine? It's been so long.
EDIT #2: Never mind I found it in my photobucket, it is .81:

Yes BP is the single way to go... My car is slammed, you can tell from the pics but the turbo is about level with my skid plate and still has plenty of clearance. I will be always thinking about that when I driving but for the type of duty this car will see, I should not have any issues.
The other issue I had in finishing the car was all of my money was being sucked up by a Porsche 72 RSR 3.8L build that I started. I am sad to say though when my business started to expand and I need to purchase another airplane last month to support the growth, this was the project that got cut.
I have since picked up a 91 MR2 Turbo again to do some more challenging driving education and some Time Attacks as well.
I will post a spec list when I can kidnap Hal and get him up to Cincy.
