Default Alright, alright, alright

Hello, everyone! So, I've had a '95 Miata for about 12 years. It wasn't running when I got it, but is now. Long story short, it sat for several years, I had a several year stint with Windsor, Chris got it running, and I'm finally doing the fine tuning.

Most of the current things came with the car when I bought it, such as an unknown T25 turbo (FMII maybe?), Bipes, Tein Flex w/ EDFC, Corbeau seats, Hard Dog roll bar, hard top, Enkei 16"s w/ Falken 205/40's (new shoes!), and a really neat steering wheel.

I've installed a coolant re-route kit, an oil filter re-route kit, a new radiator, a new intercooler, lots of hoses, new harnesses and bar, and various other bits.

Yet to install, I have a cast T3 manifold, a Synapse synchronic wastegate, sensors, an AEM EMS-4, and a few other things.

My current DD's are a 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 diesel, a 2010 Lincoln MKZ, and a very custom 2009 Honda Ruckus scooter. The latter is terrifyingly fun... Highly recommended... Seriously.
I'm 39, I live in Annapolis, MD, renting a house with a 1/2 acre yard. I have a 24' cargo trailer, a near pristine '90's Kubota G5200 tractor, a Vespa, a dog, and two cats. TWO CATS!!!

Welcome to the forum. What are your plans for the car?

Thanks! The initial plan is for it to just be a fun backup daily. Even though I've owned it for years, I've only driven it about 12 miles since getting it running. I really want to get used to it before making any commitments on track days or anything, and I already have the parts mentioned so I might as well install them. Worst case, it becomes a more primary daily.
