starting my build soon
 
Ok, so I have been lurking on here for a few days and finally decided to post. I am planning on turboing my 1990 1.6 miata. I have done a lot of reading and research and from what I gather, Ebay kits are BAD. So I have been pricing out td04 and t25 turbos. I think I will go with the t25 from an sr20, found this one, http://orlando.craigslist.org/pts/3951330335.html . Now my question right now is, where would I find a good manifold tgat will fit the 1.6 engine, I can fab up a down pipe since I have full acess to a machine and fab shop. But I would rather just buy a manifold. And as for the ECU I plan on going with a Megasquirt PNP2, should have it by the end of next month.

begi or FM for the manifold is the easy, cheap and quick option.

Thanks, I didnt see one on begi yesterday, but I was drunk, so I will look again.

drunk parts shopping is always the correct way to build a car

Lol yes it is. At least I didnt make a terrible decision, like going with an ebay kit.

You should buy my Greddy turbo and manifold.

Buy Greddy, blow stock block. Drink more. Die sad.

I saw that on the for sale section. It is tempting. But I am saving the money for the potential most expensive part in my build, the Megasquirt PNP2. If it is still avalible when I get to that point, which I doubt it will be, I will definitely get ahold of you.
