"How to turbo your Miata over the weekend with zero research into how anyone has ever in the history of Miatas successfully turbo'd their Miata"
Hey, it works... I give him credit for that. How well and for how long I don't know. |

Nonono, he didn't want aluminum shavings ruining his engine. Good luck driving that time bomb!

You'll love the sequel: "How to replace your miata motor in a weekend, after your half ass installation throws a rod through your block!"

His poor girlfriend.

New guy here, trying not to suck. Can someone give me a quick rundown of everything he did wrong? Aside from the redneck-meets-German-engineer oil setup.

Improper location of BOV with stock ECU (fixed later in video) Stock ECU Meth with stock ECU Making a shitty manifold even shittier with that bent plate welded in, instead of rerouting the coolant line I haven't watched the video since this post was made, so I'm probably forgetting a lot more. |

Crappy turbo kit - manifold prone to cracking

One day in the future I am hoping to get one to test out. |
i am planning on using the cx kit, unless i can't figure out this darn MS3 and i can buy a MK turbo kit by then.

The car in this video didn't even make 200whp.
It got spanked by a Hyundai Genesis, with a 3000gt making him look even worse. The only thing that makes this car LOOK quick is the mid 15 second SN95 GT he ran. This thing may be a mid 14 second car, look out everyone. |

Why would you even gamble like that? Its like this, An unproven cx kit vs. One that actually works, built by a site supporter.

Because the you cant get a MK Turbo kit now, im not going to wait months for a kit once im ready to install. like i said if the darn megasquirt would cooperate then i would place my order for the CX kit.
Go look at my build. I don't know what the hell I'm doing with ms. I thought I did, but I dont. Now I have a nice looking project, wthout a brain. At this point, I've got so much money wrapped up into it, and so ltitle understanding of the ms, it's not fun. I don't want to melt this thing down to learn how to tune. Don't end up like me. |
I will wait until i have OEM drivability out of my MS. cant even get the thing to start yet...
I do hope to get a MK kit but i am not going to let that stop me IF i am ready, like you said i probably wont be. |
