MX931's speed3--blown motor #2

So i got this sweet mazdaspeed3 with 53k miles on it last may and loved it so much. i put some money into it but straight drove the piss outta it cant deny that. so at 84k miles on march 19th my motor went while cruisin on 95. towed it to 3 different shops, then finally decided it would stay at bissys. it was there for a few weeks till my mom (love of my life) decided that we should just put a new motor in. tried an insurence claim, but nah. so jim found a great 2010 motor with only 4k miles on it and the turbo! So now my cars been there for a while and were preparing it to be perfect. Got a new stage 2 clutch and sent the flywheel out to be resurfaced. Also gettin a control arm thats bent fixed too.

theres the story, heres the build.
2007 mazdaspeed 3
84k on chassis, 4k oon motor and turbo

current mods:
cobb sri
cobb turbo inlet
atp downpipe/testpipe w/ 3 inch back
bc coilovers
turbosmart bov
Cobb accessport
rota g-force 18x9
Sitting in room:
18x9 rota g-force wheels (gold)
SURE rear motor mount
new SURE turbo inlet
corbeau forza II seat

plans:
cobb accessport (check)
fmic
GT3071

so i am back and forth about the turbo build. probably getting all my mounts and support stuff and lettin her be

ok so as a lot of u know i was gonna stance the car. which i sorta did, but im over it and what power. i will be tracking the car this summer. first track date is june 16th. super excited
