I give up. After ordering and returning 3 different widebands and finding that none of them will communicate with my stock ecu I think I’ll have to go with a standalone. Which leads me to my next question: where can I find and what is the cheapest and easiest tunable ecu money can buy?

Learn more then lurk craigslist. I regularly see MS PNP and Reverant setups on there with the same story of 'welp I got my girlfriend pregnant, gotta sell all my gofast parts'.
It's how I'm slowly piecing together a build.

lol sorry, i kinda tend to learn things by trial and error. Measure once cut twice... Also I'm new to cars. I bought an engine blown miata for cheap and engine swapped it in my garage alone with no ones help, not even the internets. Just kinda taped off everything so i could put it back together. Now that the projects over I thought it would be cool to start a new project putting a turbo on it. Sorry for the trouble.

Seriously, most of what you need to know is in post #2 of this thread.
Stop doing everything (everything!) and Megasquirt with wideband. Don’t do anything else until you’ve completed this step- otherwise you’re going to waste a bunch of time and money.
Read the FAQ’s here. People took a lot of trouble to write them.

OP do research it’s all here on this forum. There’s no ‘cheap way’ to boost a your miata properly unless you take lots of time waiting for people to sell their used turbo parts for a little bit cheaper than regular price.
