Intercooler is a little banged up but holds air.  I sprayed it with soapy water, put a nitrel glove over both pipes sealing it and punched through one with my air compressor blow gun.  I blew some air in it and looked for bubbles.

I got a little excited to score 4 inspected denso 195500-2010 for $100, the guy threw in the MSD Miata boost retard box.  It is NIB but I know now that I don't need it for this build.  I have another car that I am also planning to turbo charge and will run lower boost.  I will probably use it for that car in combination with a FMU.  The other turbo build is a 4 cylinder but 2.4L and 160 hp so I only need 6 psi to make it really really fun.  Probably going to get a SR20 turbo for it.
