Faelflora breaks his promise, time to part out car. GIT THE SAWZALL!
Fail yet again. I failed first though.

T goes in engine bay, **** goes in cockpit. There's a ball and spring in the T, and just a screw in the big body. Boost moves ball, but the screw bleeds some of that boost. The second barb on the bigger piece is VTA, you can leave it in the car, but it's loud, so the barb is there to vent it back outside somewhere.

deja vu. Just stick to Curly's thread or this one https://www.miataturbo.net/engine-performance-56/new-mbc-56840/ until you get a better MBC
Seriously? Dude you know better then to spend your money on ebay crap like that.
Its just an adjustable bleed. You put the T in between the boost source and the WG, the mega china controller gets plugged in to the T and you could let the end vent or plumb it back in to your intake somewhere pre-turbo.
But what you will most likely do is hook it up once then proceed to toss it into a dumpster.

lol I guess. His "**** everyone, I do what I want" attitude is refreshing (and more so his financial ability and determination to actually go through with his plans and keep the build going instead of aborting it), though I can only imagine how much money all these screw ups have cost over time

A lot less than paying for someone to do all the work, and a lot less than having a shop do repairs/maintenance on my daily. Keep in mind that this is the car I have learned the wrenching ropes on. That's my cost justification for my hobby.
Sometimes you just have to do things yourself. I personally have made the mistake of buying something people have told me not to and tried to make it work then in the end buy what I should have, but sometimes things work out. I would say Faeflora is on a learning curve still but has come a long long long long way in the last year.lol

Holy ******* ****. Perhaps I only bought that particular MBC because I did not know that it was a piece of ****? Could it be that I have not read every thread in the universe? Just maybe?
Whatever. Even at my current lameass proven 280whp
power level my car is still faster than 99% of the boosted miatas out there. I win.
