Help with what to buy
I am planning on turboing my miata and looking for advice on what you guys think is the smartest route.
I am thinking of buying everything in this thread for ~2700
https://www.miataturbo.net/miata-par...jectors-81320/
But am thinking maybe I should spend more and get a brand new FM Voodoo II + clutch for ~4k
On 1 hand I save 1300 and get WAY more parts (exhaust, MS, injectors, clutch) but on the other hand for the 1300 I am getting a complete turn key solution with a much better turbo. I am fairly new to this as well so I would be relying on my smart friends to help with installing and tuning.
I am not sure if I really need the MS solution from the start and the voodoo may be fine to hold me over for a few months until I want to upgrade. I know the general consensus is FM no electronics + injectors + MS but that will put me over my budget for now.

From what I understand about your goals, it sounds like you want to build RedCarmel's car, but with a megasquirt. Search for his build thread, and let me know what you think. It's a very simple build that is as dependable as a stock MSM.

Also PM me your paypal I am just going to send something your way to make up for looking at that car for me awhile back. Sadly I don't think I will be in your area anytime soon to buy you beer or what not.

Stop telling him to buy it! I am already in talks to get this kit, say F it to a MSM and just get my car all shady smogged when the time comes.
