Need a downpipe fabricator
Is there anyone who owns a 1.8 miata (mine is 1994) that is willing to fabricate a downpipe for an SR20 Turbo and HKS Manifold? I may be willing to send one or both items and pay shipping(plus downpipe charge)

the cost of shipping your turbo + mani both ways, plus the materials cost of the dp is going to eat up your entire budget. Leaving $0 for labor.
install that **** on your car and have some one local fab it up.

Ha. Me neither. I don't think anyone can. Actually I don't always remember what my projects are anymore.
$250 maybe would be a very simple single tube no bellmouth downpipe with you supplying the flanges and the car to make it on. I'm sure as hell not removing my setup just to make a $250 downpipe.
I say ask the two guys with "turbo" in their names. They make DPs.

Sorry, I think he was being "funny" by volunteering me.
It is really easy to do it yourself with the right cheap tools... or if you're clever, a cutoff wheel and some clever markings (notches, not ink) to indicate orientation--then take it to a muffler shop.

local muffler shop. if you can take detailed measurements or get them the car for a mock up they could make you a bend that will sync up. would cost maybe 80-100 bucks. then use a few weld ells's and the flange and try to get your neighbor to TIG it together or show you how to do it. It is not horribly difficult but you need to be carefull and thorough with your cleaning of the product before hand. GL

dont... get some aluminized steel mandrel bends. check the member discounts section for people who can help you find those.
hint: wideopentuning / atpturbo.com
also: roadraceengineering.com
also: verociousmotorsports.com (one day ups gnd!)
you'll need the turbo flange and some way to attach it to your exhaust obviously...
