IT'S A MIATA DIY TURBO FORUM!

Yes they do.

SO FUCKING READ IT.

You're not going to get along well here.

So obviously people come to this forum for a reason. It just seems to me that a DIY turbo forum when actually bring people that wanted to use junkyard turbos etc. This is far from a DIY forum.

Read what?

Do I need to spoonfeed that to you as well?

Maybe the diy forum, instead of shitposting questions that have been answered a million times.

To answer your question, yes the turbo will work. Nearly any turbo of appropriate size can be fabricated to fit but some are easier to set up than others. If you are willing to put in the fabrication work, it will work. It may not work as well as some other combinations and it may not be as easy to make work as other combinations. But as these fellows have mentioned, a good manifold is more difficult to acquire than a good Turbo.

Infracted for retardation. Ignorant or arrogant,pick one can’t have both, or I show you the door

Thread title did not disappoint.

Lol at thread title

Good read. In for the rest of the show.

"Knowpain" It might seem like we are a rough crowd here but what you need to understand is there is an enormous amount of information here to the point were almost every question you could possibly have is answered. When it comes to diy turbo kits yes and idiot in his moms basement can turbo a shitty car. What we have on this forum and why people get a little grumpy at kids not searching is a recipe for high hp reliable turbo miatas. There has been a ton of builds on here with people making huge numbers and prove what works and doesnt. So its kinda up to what you want to do. You can not learn and do what you want without research and break parts and waste money or you can read what works buy the quality components and have a nice turbo car. But your attitude problem here needs to stop and you need to start reading a LOT otherwise you are going to get roasted here and probably banned. A good start for you would probably be a megasquirt if you dont have one already and maybe a class on how to search google.

surprised OP isnt posting in mx5 yet..thats where you get the real juicy info.

I haven't seen you answer the OP's question either. Instead you came in here just to bitch and moan about people telling someone to search for the vast amount of knowledge that is already recorded on this site.

Maybe you're the joke here? (HINT - the answer to that question is yes)

Regarding the OP's question. Even some of the kits require some DIY. Not all of the kits have every single nut and bolt or piece you need. My recommendation would be to find what power level you want and then decide if you want to put in the work to get the car there reliably. Want 500 HP? Awesome, be prepared to do a ton of work and swap the transmission and rear end. Sounds like you might be looking more for 200-250 HP though based on your question. Start by researching which turbo you want and go from there. The most common are some variant of a T25 or the Borg Warner EFR6258.

OR if you're not the type to sit in front of the computer and put in the time to search for exactly what you want and instead just want the cool noises that come with a turbo then you can call up Flyin' Miata and they'll sell you everything you could possibly want.

Let's just get something out there. I'm 43 years old and have done my fair share of fab and restoration work in my lifetime. I have already purchased a MS3. I go junkyard hunting about every other weekend looking for parts to my old Mercedes. I found a turbo that was actually still available on the engine. I did the research before I asked but was trying to get some input on the usefulness of the Mercedes turbo. Like I said it was on the junkyard list that I researched. So now I know. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...ea51386b47.png

What does this thread have to do with you? or are you OP and just samefagging with another user to defend your thread and forgot which user you were logged in as?

I have never done any work on FI systems. I am a carb guy. So this is my first build/restoration on anything newer than 78. I sold my CB750, 73 MGB, 64 internation Scout and 78 C10. Bought this because I wanted to get into the turbo arena. Figured it was a good place to start. I currently am totally redoing all the suspension and steering on the 91 miata. I have a small rust spot to weld up and then I will pull the engine out and reseal. I'm just gathering parts for the turbo.

There is a FAQ section that covers all the basics so that people dont ask questions like he did. Dont get yer panties in a bunch Petunia.

We do use junk yard turbos. Plent of kits do. The kinds of people that want to pluck a random turbo from the junk yard and ask if it will work have not lesrned enough to be able to choose and use a turbo yet. When told so, most flip out.

Like I stated it was on the list of turbos I got from this website.

T25
T28
T3 60 trim
GT2554R
GT2560R
GT2871R
TD04L-13T ( wrx turbo )

Those are all perfect for a stock motor miata
