Pics of Innovative 60-1
Check out my new 60-1 turbo I recently purchased from Importformance (Greg). It was made by Innovative Turbo and has a .96 turbine on center and a .7 comp. I didn't have the funds to spring for the dual BB option, but I can always get them installed at a later date. The qualilty of the turbo is excellent from what I can see, much better than my last turbo. Now if I can just get the car back together so I can make it to Gordon's BBQ Sunday. 
You will also notice in the pics that I pull out the stock coolant nipples on the water pump housing and tapped them for AN fittings.

Looks like someone likes to use RTV
the stuff is everywhere. It looks like you used RTV to seal those pipe plugs. If so you might want to change that to either teflon tape, loctite 565 or some loctite 545. RTV isn't meant to seal pipe.
Turbo looks awsome though

Too much will clog your strainer in the oil pan and ruin your motor there Pal..
Be careful..

Jeez, I posted pics of the turbo and now I am getting criticized on my motor building skills. I am sure I didn't use too much sealant on the pan. I used the same amount last time and there was no silicon found in the oil pan clogging anything. If I didn't see silicon coming out of every edge of the pan then I would worry. Leaky oil pans are not fun.

i always add some silicone to the mazda gaskets, and never use the mazda gasket to seal the oil pan, because it always seems to leak. the silicone will spooge out a little. But then i will clean it up aftewards. So it doesn't seem to be excess. I've seen worse. Quality silicone won't come off that much.
