I solve problems by doing nothing and then when I come back they are solved.

this downpipe should be less than $150 all said and done.

 

You need to measure the area behind your turbo and see what you have for downpipe clearance.

According to that link, the adapter is 2" outwards, you'll probably need to cut the rear shelf to make a clean 3" downward turn.

 

I got this

 

what viper said. that's why I custom made my elbow thing. it makes a 90 right at the outlet and then has the Vband.

 

Yes that is what you should do.

*** your stupid rear shelf. Hit that mothr with a fukking hammer. This is a racecar right?

 

-----.

 

did you think it's a biggie to have to cut that rear shelf?

 

It's cut in the V8 builds, and a recent turbo build I can't think of. It's no biggie.

 

link to "recent turbo build" please sir and thanks

 

Cut it ya sissy. If you are really scared, reinforce the corner with some plate and angle. Nice looking build so far.

Have fun.

 

lol dick

 

I think it's one of the weird manifold designs, like that's angled or something. Check that German's 400hp build or something.

 

I bought my car new. I think it might have still been under warranty when I put the turbo on. I decided to work around it.

 

you may be one of the few people I've ever met who bought their Miata new

EDIT: we haven't officially "met"

LET'S CHANGE THAT!!!

 

Someone's happy to see you y8s.I think he's making suggestive gestures with his avatar.

 

and he wonders why I refuse to give him my phone number or be his facebook friend.
