Bracketry?? If you mean in front of the turbo there, that is an MR2 Electric steering pump. I kept throwing belts on the regular pump once I broke the 350whp mark. I dont think the pump could hang with the stress. The MR2 pump has been great. I just flip in on when i drive. Off when I am sitting.

Unfffffff. The sickness.

Wow twinscroll with .73 should be pretty snappy. I was going to guess gtx3076. So what will be yiur new boost/power goal? 35psi? 550hp?

Btw what are you doing for crankcase ventilation? At 28/30psi i needed more vent than my -12 fitting could provide.

My goal right now is for it to be fully spooled by 4k. if its much later this will be for sale shortly.

It is a bigger turbo, but the manifold along with the twinscroll should be really efficient for early spool. Thats the plan and working with the Honeywell Engineer it looks solid on paper, but paper is paper..

If it does spool well enough for me, I will likely be around the same power. Maybe a bit more. More HP just because I believe that the ftlbs will be a bit lower at the same HP numbers.

That is only because I still have a weak sauce miata 6 speed and a 1.8 rear end. ha ha ha, I am really mechanically sympathetic and smooth. I feather realllllll nice

I may have some nice runs at 35psi just to see what happens LOL..

Ahhh man. I have no idea what kind of boost #s I would have to run to see what power #s I want.. Plus, at that boost level I think the whine may be annoying ha ha ha..
