To delete PS and AC, use the belt off a '05 Cavalier without AC (IIRC) and you are good to go. Everything else stays the same.

70mm eBay special throttle body. Only took a little porting of the LE5 intake manifold, and a bit of bolt hole enlarging on the TB to make it fit. This allows me to keep the cable actuated throttle for ease of install and MS tuning.

Next up is to bolt on the transmission adapter plate, modified miata flywheel, and FM clutch. I may need a clutch upgrade down the line, but at that point I'd probably need a beefier transmission anyway.

Fitment on the starter motor is insanely tight. I can probably fit a single sheet of paper, just barely. When it heats up it will probably touch and make some annoying sounds. I don't think it will be catastrophic though, but I'm all ears if anyone thinks it's worth grinding away some space on the motor mounts.

Oil drain. I had to cut away some space on the motor mounts, but it's a non-critical spot. The drain taps very nicely into the block.

This is the thermostat housing from an LNF, which makes space for the turbo, plus the ecotecmiata spacers to make space for the transmission.

Nice an compact. Should fit just fine. I'm attempting to do a 3.5 inch to 3 inch downpipe, since the turbo outlet is 3.5 inches.
