when I put the turbo and stuff on it had 132,000 on it. It has a little over 137,000 as of now. Im just happy with the way things turned out. I know the motor has some milage and Im pretty much at the limit for the stock stuff but im still rockin it pretty hard and getting 28mpg when im driving around town. I cant complain. and about the MBC. I made one with some fittings that I got at ace hardware, so yes, I do have one. and it works awesome. cost me nothing to make, cause im bad and I accidentally walked out with it in my pocket. Oh well...

hehe I've determined that high mileage means nothing until nearly 200k. I've been boosting for nearly 30k miles now on a T3/T04E. My engine started showing excessive smoke around 190k miles. Not too shabby, I think.

New one still in the build process for 400+whp...

I spent 1800 bucks on my KA and got way more power out of it then I ever did the SR. If you need help with anything or want help with options, let me know. Im not bashing the SR in any way, I liked mine. But you can get the same ammount and more power out of the KA and for a lot cheaper price tag.
