Default 944 gone! Got the Turbo Miata!!!

Okay folks you will or should remember the thread i started about the trade. If not, go look lazy asses! I just got it in my garage after a long day of insurance and tax, title BS.

Now my camera is dead. So im gonna go snap some pix with my Blackberry and its not all that bad. Guys Im wondering why i didnt pick one of these up years ago!

I am not gonna miss the 944 too bad other than it was very clean for its age. This thing is a beast, and i know the wheels are too big so shut the hell up! I am gonna get some 16ul's.

Ill be back in a min gonna go snap some pix! It feels good to be alive!!!!

There is a small issue with the down pipe slightly rubbing on the shelf. Its already been cut but when the new Motor Mounts were put on it now rubs,, so imma have to do some cutting on the right side of teh DP to prevent this. I am drinking coffe like a madman and I will be in the garage all night with this thing.

well try to take worse pics of it and maybe we can help! looks a lot like an SS auto-chrome, but the EWG has me confused.

Could also be an ETD racing one, but the material doesn't look right:

maybe the one i posted after the ":" when referring to it?

I don't care about the EWG itself but the outlet design on the manifold.

Okay okay brains!!! Sorry buddy! LOL
well someone has just made a reference to the header and said it could as well be a BEGI? I know theres a handful of commercial tubulars for the miata, keep it in mind though that this tubular is for a 1.8 and the turbo is a t3. Heres a couple more pix. The IC is ridiculously big but fits well and looks to be custom made.

Might want to tuck that fender edge back under, before it gets a hold of the tire.
