Smile New member need your advice!

Hi, I am driving a '92 JDM Miata with 1.6 greddy turbo kit without fmic. Of course, the turbo manifold finally gave up on me and here I am, wondering if I only replace the manifold with ETD or make the move and add fmic + boost upgrades (trying to get reliable 200whp @ 11psi is possible right ?)
Questions
1- what would be the approximate cost of ETD manifold + labor
2- what would be the approximate cost of the ETD manifold + fmic + boost upgrades
3- do you think spending that money is worth it (70whp)

Thank You !

Well what type of fuel management are you planning on using to control 11lbs? Also bigger injectors would be needed, possibly an new clutch, and definitely need new manifold, and intercooler.

By the way great looking car.

I don't know what fuel management i'm planning to use either, what is the most popular among 200whp setup ?
My clutch is aftermarket so i think it would hold out. What's the injectors i need to use ?

Megasquirt is the best bang for your buck

Megasquirt is the way to go in my opinion and I would get atleast some 440cc injectors so you have a little room for the futuer or maybe 550cc injectors.
