The Link is a standalone engine computer. It completely replaces the stock ECU, and is a direct plug&play unit to the factory harness for that year car as far as I know. It just needs a wideband and IAT sensor hooked up to it, and will completely run the entire car. It's a bit dated as far as processing ability and fidelity compared to what's available now, but still very capable. It'll have a serial port somewhere on it so you can hook it up to a laptop... just need the software.

The Link was sold by Flyin Miata by the thousands for a long time and there is a lot of support/history even on this forum... call FM, give them the serial number off the unit and they should be able to tell you enough about it to get started... maybe even hook it up with the software but I don't know if they just hand that stuff out.

So I read that all your gauges are digital... good luck.

fyi, your turbo is spinning fast enough with a load (especially in 5th gear) to blow off without being in "boost". that doesn't mean your guage is off. must your first turbo car. you've got lots of reading to do.
