It all started with a basic greddy kit and then it transformed into a 19t and only thing that stayed stock was the manifold.

Now there is nothing left and getting all new goodies from ARTech and a gt2870.
So while Abe is fabricating my new bottom mount mani, 3" DP and muffler less 3" exhaust I started to prep my car.

Flipped my mixing coolant manifold and painted it black

And did my heater hose as well

nice. still staying on stock motor or are you going to build?

miataspeed2005 09-10-2010 05:40 PM

Stock till winter/spring... I'm going for 260-270 hp and crossing my fingers that it doesn't blow up till I build it, if it does then it will sit in the garage like it always does anyways.

Manifold looks nice. Can't wait to see the rest :)

Going external wastegate like a real man? :giggle:

miataspeed2005 09-10-2010 06:30 PM

Internal since I can't afford $300 right now but I already talked to Abe and he will be welding a flange for me once I save up some money.

A little boost creep never hurt nobody:D

Just get an ebay WG and replace the spring. Much cheaper, works well, and will last for more than long enough for you to get a Tial.

Cspence 09-10-2010 07:22 PM

I told him to go EWG....:hustler::giggle:.



On another note, you should buy is Splitime's IM...I think that would complete your setup nicely...

Don't think that's a miata part, could be part of an alarm, but it looks ancient. Cut it out and see what happens.
