hey fellas, if this event hasn't happened yet, I'd like to come by and check you turbo guys out. I'm a noob to the miata but not to the turbo scene. I'm coming from the turbo SR20 world where I turboed my B14 SE-R with a little T25 set-up. Fun times with that car and I want to do the same to my 02 Miata. I would love to see in person what you guys have done to your rides. I'm in the Nova area as some of you all are. Anyway, back to my lurking and research...

No problem, most of us are finishing up our motors and should be ready soon. I personally am running a turbo off of an SR20, so you may find it fairly interesting.

ok well I need to get this done so I may end up doing it myself. You're all welcome to come watch and learn or give me a ride home if something goes very wrong. heh.

I'm gonna call up and schedule an appointment for an hour with the operator for saturday late morning I think.

update: I'm in at 11:00am Saturday July 14 at Classic GT Motorsports.

Anyone?
Anyone?

we dont got four. you might need an hour though. what do you have to tune?

basically you roll up, they strap you on, you tune your own stuff while their operator sets load or RPM on the dyno... it's pretty awesome.
