New purchase....
GReddy Manifold (with relief cuts)
GReddy Intake pipe
GReddy Downpipe
T70 Hyrbid Turbo (brand new never been fitted)
Intercooler
Intercooler Hard Pipes (originally imported from the US)
Blitz BOV w/ silicone pipe
Heat Shields
Jackson Racing Fuel Pressure Regulator
++ PLEASE READ ++
The T70 Turbo is from a company called XS Power (previous owner imported it from the US). Some say its a cheap chinese Turbo,but research has shown there was problems upto 2008,but NOTHING since then. The instructions included are in english,no sign of any Chinese. I keep getting told different things,so i'm gonna go on my OWN accord,and use this turbo. If it goes bang,it goes bang!
From talking to the seller (local MX5OC member,who knows what hes on about!) said he used the standard GReddy kit on his Mk1 on stock management and it drove absolutely fine!
I know if i want to turn the boost up,i'll need bigger injectors etc etc and i'll need a stand alone ECU (Megasquirt),but this will be my first turbo'd car. I'll be starting off low PSi and build up from there.
He used the kit on his car for months,so just proves nothing is wrong with doing it that way

How are you planning on using that manifold with that chinese turbo.
By they way, the turbine flange is "T3" not T3/T4. T3/T4 is a style of turbo. T3 and T4 flanges different from one another.

Its what was in the box when i bought it,whether it all fits i'm not sure. But chances are there will be left over pipe work
Painted the headlight covers in Black Stone Chip to match the Superlites
Also stripped the blown turbo off the manifold and trial fitted the new turbo to make sure it fits ok
Also fitted a Garrett T25 to the manifold to make sure that would fit aswell (with the studs removed,it would fit proply). I know if i used a T25 i'd need a new downpipe made
Heres the condition of the Garrett
The crack runs right down the housing (couldnt get a clear enough photo)
Also should be picking this up from Law on MX5 Nutz
Should save the money and hassle of getting a new downpipe made to match the rest of the exhaust system
Just oil lines,air filter,retard the timing and it'll be ready to fit!

Want to start at 4-5psi to get used to boost,i only use the car at weekends so it wont be used a great deal.
So it is possible use it this way,just the life of the engine could be decreased the harder i drive it (depending on the psi) ?
