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


More updates to come

 

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

 

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.

 

Where's all the Artech shiz!

 

Painted the valve cover black


Made a metal plate for the coolant thing on the intake manifold

 

Here's a preview

Now go clean up your self.

 

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

Going external wastegate like a real man?

 

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

 

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.

 

I told him to go EWG.....



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

^^^^ and this is coming from the guy who won't spend $300 to replace his blown turbo

 

Ur Mr. money bags...

 

 

Anyone know what the he'll is this little box thing?



And it's connected to here

 

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.

 

Ok it's out, hopefully it wasn't important

 

Oh god, you actually cut it out.

I was kidding.

 

 

hmm maybe an alarm device or antirust device
