Turbo, ITBs, and another EVO 3 16G
Well some of you know i got away from the miatas for a wail but have been itching to get another one so i bought this blue 92 NA for 1400.
I got it knowing it needed a new HG but once i fixed that i found that i had 2 down cylinders. So i pulled the motor out and ripped her apart. The block crank and head are fine just needs a refreshing. So ordered everything up to refresh up the motor.
Then i ended up picking up a T3 ramhorn ARTech manifold, some GSXR 750 SRAD throttle bodies, MS1 that's getting MS2 conversion, DSM 450cc injectors with resistor box, EVO 3 16G, and kinugawa turbo turbine T3 housing & anti surge compressor housing for the EVO 3 16G.
Will get photos once everything come as most of it is in the mail.
Going to be running 10psi for now until i pick up another motor to do a full build on from top to bottom.

Looks like it should be a bichin setup.
evo3 16g is a great turbo. But I wonder: after paying for the turbo and both housings, aren't you into it for basically what a 2871 would cost you? And aren't you basically putting big housings onto relatively small wheels which may make it fairly slow spooling?

From what i have found the 8cm is not much bigger then what most people run seeing as if you convert it to an A/R its .57 and the 7cm is .49.
6 cm^2 = 0.41 A/R
7 cm^2 = 0.49 A/R
8 cm^2 = 0.57 A/R
9 cm^2 = 0.65 A/R
10 cm^2 = 0.73 A/R

The build is mostly for fun and show, until i get another motor and build the **** out of it and find a 6 speed and 1.8 diff swap.
Might even build a nice setup dial it in and sell it and drive it stock who knows. Its mostly just to keep me busy and mentally happy lol.

Okay so here is whats done so far and what has happen. I ended up selling the 16g to some one i know and got this nice GT3076R for nothing and i mean nothing. Motor is all stock until next winter. I picked up a water to air intercooler setup and also got all the piping to build my intake manifold. Im going to ditch the MS1 i got for a DIYPNP, also planning on building a 3" downpipe with a cutout and retain stock cat back.
