Default newb out of sf bay area

Hello
I have a 92 NA miata. Motor went bad so I decided to get another one, only this time with a turbo. Bought a motor, bought a turbo kit, looked on the net for info and BAM!!! found this site (winning) i WILL be asking stupid questions like...Which injectors work with the Mitsubishi turbo, and whats a good boost controller..I am not the brightest in this area so its kinda like teaching geometry in pre school. With that said, im going to read some more, hello to all. BTW I own a decal shop in SF called Vinyl Options. I am ALWAYS willing to trade decals and stuff for help with my miata

Do that, and things will go MUCH better for you here.

What turbo kit did you buy? (fingers crossed it didn't come from ebay)
What are you planning to use for engine management?

the kit..im told....is from godspeed. As for management, im looking into that now and im on ebay (is that bad) i found this one today and am looking through the forum now to see if anyone else has used it before. Also waiting on a friend of mine to take a look and give me his opinion... Electronic Turbo Boost Controller HDI EBC R Race 60mm HDI Boost Gauge 1103 | eBay
