 Can you buy those parts someplace for a TO3 Jeff? I think TO3 parts fit
 the stock 88-92 Mazda turbo.

I'm not sure where to get them.  I thought Turbonetics sold them.  I have a
few I bought from the company that makes our custom turbos.  If you can't
find 'em I'll ask where they got 'em.

I guess it is real important to monitor that sort of stuff at 57,000 feet.
