| Welcome to the board and welcome to Edmonton, where a 15 minute drive is considered fairly short. |

Look down in Callingwood, there is an ass load of townhouses for sale around my place and they only last a couple of weeks before they are gone. Callingwood is not even 5 minutes from West Ed so it would prolly be close enough for ya.
btw - can u hook me up with a deal for painting a kit? :D |

IMO turbo all the way, do you have the 2.3L in your mazda? 151hp factory i think? if so same as the enw focus GO turbo or bolts on lots of stuff out there for that 2.3 duratec motor |

160 hp actually, and I've gotten all the bolt ons out there so far, CAI, header and exhaust. None of the focus 2.3 stuff fits the 3 for some reason. Stupid aftermarket is taking their sweet ass time for other mods like cams, intake manifolds and other NA goodies.
I was kinda leaning torward turbo, but just need to save up more money for forged internals so I dont boost myself to a messed up engine. |

| Welcome to Edmonton and the boards. Be sure to check out the Events and Meets section. The regular meets at United Cycle on Fridays and Saturdays are starting to pick up now that the snow is gone ... sorta. |
