Zoltan:
From what I'm reading about engine internals in the book "Maximum
Boost", I don't think I should have any problems with the turbo
overstressing the engine (if I keep to sane boost levels -- 7-10psi).

Chris:
It's a garrett something-25 with a .61 A/R. I think $400 for it is a
decent price.

John:
I'm going back to the WBX because I was able to find a newish
engine+intake for free. :)  If I had my druthers, and $10k, I would
definately get the 3.6liter MSDS conversion(3.6l porsche + g50
transmission).  In any case, I will call Darryl and ask him about his
setup tomorrow around 2pmPST, hopefully he's around then :)
