This is my ebay build. Basically as cheap and reliable as i could make it. Its a 1990 miata 1.6l with a ebay t3 turbo kit. Megasquirt plug and play 2, ebay stage 2 clutch, rx8 injectors, used 1.8l open dif from ebay (hopefully will weld the dif sooner or later. Dyno tuned at 250hp turned down to 220. (My phone died right before i could take picture of dyno graph.) Upgraded pads. Greddy type s Bov, and a turbosmart boost controller Now i know there will be ebay haters on this forum saying how my clutch and turbo will fail.

Iv put 30k miles on this setup and the car never broke down on me. I've driven it to ocean city MD 4 times now and i live in PA so its a 4 hour drive. I've never had any clutch slipping issues on my ebay clutch and I've done so many burnouts, including 20+ burnouts at h2oi. At one point i had 245 slicks on racing one night and i was surprised to find my clutch, dif, and tranny all help up to a 4500 rpm launch on them slicks.

This post is just here to say you don't need a ton of money to have fun with your miata. I have 3 grand total in the car. That's including the price of the car at 1800 dollars. Just go out experiment and have fun. You live and you learn. I don't have a lot of money and i got to beat a older Porsche cameron with my poor man's Porsche. I really don't think ill ever get rid of this car and i have a 400hp set up on the way!
