So that puts us pretty much up until today. For the turbo build, my goal is to be around 200 whp, or just a bit over. Enough power to make the car decently quick, but not enough to blow everything up :)
After some research, I decided to go with a T25 from an sr20DET. Pairing that with a Flyin' Miata cast manifold. Those are the only 2 big parts that I've acquired to far. 460cc red top rx7 injectors are in the mail right now - I'll be sending them off to Witch Hunter for cleaning and flow testing when I get them. As far as more parts I will buying in the near future, I'm looking at Megasquirt PNP2 and a CX racing intercooler. More updates soon hopefully!! https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1372257032 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1372257032 |
Nice.
The kosei wheels were 100000000000000% better than the meshies. Love the WRX. Good call on the fm log and sr turbo. Simple yet effective. Clean car. |

The paint is in pretty decent shape, but it does have some really nasty rocker rust. My plan is to have that taken care of with replacement rockers over the winter when the car isn't being driven. |
Consider a MS3 Basic from Reverent instead of an MSPNP2 as an option.
Welcome. |

Welcome. The car is going to be tuned by Matt of Wicked Innovation. He's one of the most reputable tuners in New England, and a friend of mine. |
Where the heck are you auto-xing. That doesnt look like devens.

Got my MSPNP2 brand new, as well as 460cc RX7 red top injectors that I will be sending out to Witch Hunter for cleaning.

Hey this is a cool build! I just bought 460's too, plus just got the SR20 brainwave... Don't yell at me if I copy this build too much ;)
What downpour are you planning on? The FM one or are you going custom? |

Ah I see. I'm trying to avoid the whole custom downpipe bit, as there are not many good fab shops locally... looks like I'll just have to keep hunting for a used BEGI/FM downpipe.

I've been slacking on updates!
Picked up an older FMII FMIC setup with the piping https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1377697091 APS BOV https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1377697091 Got my injectors cleaned with great results :) https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1377697091 Stage 2 Comp Clutch https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1377697091 Making good use of the car this summer! https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1377697091 Did another couple autocrosses as well. The car ran great, and I put down some of my best times so far. Me and a couple of friends started to tear things down last night. Got the intake out, as well as the header/downpipe/cat/EGR. All of the header nuts came off smoothly (thank god!) I don't have a ton of time left this week to work on the car, so I may take on some of the smaller tasks, like the injectors, or MegaSquirt, as well as cleaning up that nasty engine bay! https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1377697091 |
Cool update, I love the Kayak transportation! I wish I had pictures of some of the things I've stuffed in my car.

Good luck with them, and the build. Cheers :party: |
Try Goodwinracing for some deep dish raceable and light wheels, like my Konig wideopens or the flatouts. They're cheap, but I hear they were sued by Ray's and Enkei and might not be available for much longer. Granted you have other purchase priorities right now, but if you sell the meshes on CR you might even come out on top.
I'd also suggest selling the FM intercooler and finding one without all the kinks, bends, and couplers in the piping. Either look at making a simpler design yourself, or look into buying their new one piece silicone hoses. Good build so far though, you're basically copying my build, except with a 1.8. Should be good! |
