Turbo is ready to go back in as I get new inconel stud from begi first. I modify the wastegate actuator point straight to the lid.

Great build sir. Quality parts. Look forward to seeing what it'll do with a proper size turbo!!

I want a 2871... :(

F*ck bitches, get money

No. it’s not ready yet. Just test fitting

Jigalo style?

No :bowrofl: ..or maybe if it pays my miata parts

Manifold looks great.

Wiring looks downright scary. Clean that up.

I knew somebody is going to bring that up! :D My excuse is that I’m waiting to finish my LSx truck coil wiring and after that I sort that mess out.

I guess 70mm throttle body should be ok?

this thread is epic win

Thanks :party:

Absolutely.

Can't wait to see the glorious powerband all this new stuff should help you produce

Holy rats-nest, batman. Looking good otherwise though, what modifications did you do to that ITR mani to make it work? It doesn't look like you cut the flange off and swapped it like most do.

As I wrote, it’s not finished yet. Just a test fitting.

I’m going to cut the stock flange off and weld it to the Honda IM. Stock idle valve is only thing that I’m not sure about. Should I modify it fit where Honda IAC valve goes or can I use it through vacuum ports…

Now it only needs polishing

Next I’m taking that intake manifold to get welded

now polish that port job... but cant you knife edge that butterfly or does it look thick just in the picture?

Well it is looking kind a thick now that you mention it. I don’t know if there’s any gain knife edge that?

Loving the ultimate smiley pic on the inlet tubing...Represent ;) https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1358942780

Don't screw with it or it won't close right.

Knife edge = bad for subsonic flow. Unless you plan on your TB seeing supersonic speeds. It's already way bigger than stock, something tells me that it won't be a restriction.

the shaft is flat on one edge too right?

I have never seen a flat shaft, and i have seen many TBs they have always been round shafts.

Insert gay joke here!
