Don't listen to these guys. Take my advice:

mazda engine have problems, and once it does it gets fucked up, so putting turbo on will just make the problem worst

But, a turbo kit from one car will not bolt onto another. The parts are not compatible... specifically the manifold and downpipe. The flange that bolts the manifold to the engine does not have the same flange (or not that I know of)... and since a Civic is FWD w/a transverse mounted engine w/exhaust on the front side, the exhaust routes underneath the engine and back... while the Miata is RWD with a longitudinally mounted engine and the exhaust is on the side of the engine and runs back.

The turbocharger itself is essentially a universal item and will bolt to any manifold/DP that has the right flanges for it to bolt to and will fit in the space provided under the hood.

As for injectors, 450's are a good size if you're going with some sort of engine management (standalone/piggyback) but cannot be used with the stock ECU and the DSM injectors are not compatible with the stock Miata wiring harness and will need to be modified to work at all.

Did you read the FAQ that I linked and did you go to the FlyinMiata and Bell websites and check out their products like I linked in the 4th post?

Since im pretty sure that this level of reading comprehension is above and beyone what MazdaMitaTurb-Oh can understand (obviously because he is from the "OC"), let me put this into simple words and phrases.

Miata turbo is expensive to get done to engine do not fuck up and is good. You must have computer in car to make sure manifold welds dont blow and that floorboards do not fall off. :gay:

You guys should make this a mandatory read before making the first thread.

but turbo does accelerate wear somewhat since you're working the engine harder with the turbo. use better oil with the turbo and change it more frequently for example. turbo.

That whole thing reminded me of:

I think this would be better:

"Miata turbo is expensive to get done to engine do not fuck up and is good. You must have computer in car to make sure manifold welds dont blow and that floorboards do not fall off."

Ahhh sorry guys, took me a while to find my thread again, plus been busy with my midterm at uci so yea, thx for all the replies, helped me alot really, as of right now i might just go look for parts to get my diy turbo kit then have it install by some pros, there is a kit on ebay , garrett turbo t3, came off a civic, what you guys think of that? guy who sell it says add 50 bucks more for DSM 450's injectors, do i even need that strong of an injector ?

Ok dude check this there is only room for one abiguosly bad gramar using turbo afficianado. Your freind is probably talking about rotaries, wich blow up very easily esp if the tune is crap.
To realy help you we need-
  1. Year of car
  2. Power gaols
  3. budget
Professionaly instalation is not recomemded generally on this forum accept for those who are retarded or rich (essentialy retarded with $$) Tunning however is something that is good to farm out especialy of you are chickenshit or, know and trust other people to not blow your stuff up. You have many hours of reading ahead of you. You say you know about miatas, but as of now you still have not shown us any information we can use to help you. You do know there is more than 1 miata model right?

jwarriner 10-19-2007 12:51 PM

+1 on no professional installation. Who's going to do a better job, an informed enthusiast working on their own car or your local t00ner shop that mostly installs overpriced intakes and wheels on Civics and 240s and has very little knowledge about YOUR car? Fuck rice shops, they're all hacks.

Step one is to get informed. This could take anywhere from a few months to a year of diligent, daily research. You'll also need a shop manual.

Zabac 10-19-2007 02:02 PM

+1 on rice shops, fuckers tried to charge me $30 to install each tire and offered no guarantee that they won't scratch my rims because "they is uhh low tires and its hard and stuff like that"...lol wow
if you can do it yourself do it...buy lots of beer and call all the local guys to come help you, buy pizza too and they'll actually help once they get there, lol

Greatest movie ever made. :bigtu:

beerslurpy 10-19-2007 05:31 PM

Hahaha, you go the the University of Contoured Integras? That place is ricer city.

I vote that the OP fuck off. Just pay someone to install a 100 wet shot and call it a day. You fail at cars and you are wasting our time with your ignorance and marginal ability with the English langauge.

Also, I hate wallet mechanics that don't know the first thing about cars. At least learn the proper words for things. If you aren't going to do it yourself, you are on the wrong forum. This is DIY Turbo.

MazdaMitaTurb-Oh 10-20-2007 01:49 AM

Ah FCUK U smartasses, ill just sent my car to the president of the United states of America and ask him for advice because i know he is very good at turbo and wont blow my turbo up because he is so good at not blowing things up, especially in Iraq. And for you dumbfucks who criticize my english, first of all this is a fucking forum, you just type wtf you want to say and get it over with, this is not a fucking essay you retarded morons. If you want to learn how to write an essay then i'm sure i can help you morons who aren't smart enough for a higher education. And no, UCI is not full of contoured integras, but rather bmw 5 series and suburu STI, so whoever said that go shove a exhaust pipe up your ass bitch. btw the professionals i referred to are my buddies who go to UTI and they have turbo car of their own. who is fucking dumb enough to go rice shops nowadays!!??, whoever you are, I think you are a fucking moron for bringing that up in the first place. FUCK YOU RETARDS HOPE YOUR MIATA TURBO BLOW UP IN YOUR FACEEEE WOOOO. Btw ill just delete this name and come back as another person and ask more stuff, muahahahahhahahaha, and yea listing all the cheap shit you got for your car on your signature is pretty damn gay....

Kelly 10-20-2007 01:58 AM

ImBackandBetter 10-20-2007 02:15 AM

Guess what, I'm back bitch, you fucking moron, think you can stop me? Bitch please I aint that stupid. You poor bitches need a new network that actually ban people for reals lol. You stupid fuck, bann me for 2 years? Bitch plzzzz i can go in and out of this place like i own it dip shit. Moderate that you fucking moron, go get some pussy and stop sitting at home moderating what people are saying on a miata website. LoL this is cracking me up so bad, i might be lame for doing this but it just so funny, you white hicks actually think you are "moderating the site" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAA shit this is too funny

Marc D 10-20-2007 02:25 AM
