Rebuild/Upgrade progress and Qs thread

I don't think i'd need that LIM as i plan on using the intake i have now unless i can nab an S5 N/A UIM.

As far as porting, i found that mazdatrix has a porting template for the 6-port that i believe is a mild/medium street port. I may go with that unless i get more info or find a better template

As soon as i finish the trans rebuild for my DD im going to be pulling the 7's motor and seeing where im at.

Speaking of transmissions, i've read that the N/A 5-speed trans isn't that strong. Would a mild turbo be too powerful for the transmission and what sort of fixes are there?
