Hey everybody, my name is Collin, I'm 20, and I'm from Frederick MD. I'm currently looking to purchase a Miata, and I'm going to look at a blue '90 tomorrow in PA. Hopefully I'll have it turbo'd within a year or so. The car will be my daily driver, so when it does get boost, I plan on running the FM Voodoo II kit at 6psi. I don't really know any local miata guys, so if you are in the Baltimore/Frederick area, hit me up, I'd love to see what other people are planning and doing to their cars

Welcome to MT.net.

There is going to be a local dyno day in Md in November so if you check out the Local Meets sub forum there is info about it. Also ask FeaFlora for install help, I know he is great with a hacksaw.

Cool! Thanks a lot!

Going to pick up my miata in Manheim PA later today. I'll post pix

Noice

There are other less expensive ways to make power than the FM kit. Have you checked out the BEGi Shanghai kit?

I got the car! pix as soon as i get back from WV. sixshooter i have looked at the shanghai kit, but i'm not sure about using a chinese turbo. how's the durability on those?

There are guys on this forum that have been running them for years without failure. I wouldn't steer you wrong.

Welcome and congrats on the new car! Stop right now though with the questions and search. Take my advice and dont question it.

willco. thanks for the advice guys i appreciate it. i'll be back from WV tomorrow and i'll put up pix

Welcome to the forum.

sorry for the small pics. i'll make a new thread when i get the originals

I am putting a chinese turbo on my built motor and shooting for 300-350hp at the wheels. You should see it at the Dyno day in November.

Wow, that is a great looking Miata. Not sure about that gigantic clown shoe next to it though...odd looking

Alot better shape than when I got mine. Is that the original paint or was there a respray by the PO?

Howdy.

it's been resprayed. it needs touching up though there are some crappy spots that need wet sanded or buffed or something. the guy with the goofy shoe lookin car is really good with that kind of stuff so he's gonna help me out

The one at york auto? I'll definitely be there, it's like 20 minutes from my house. and I'd love to see your car

I love those M-coupes, so hideously sexy

love the M coupe! i have a house in Frederick on butterfly lane
but for now i am in hawaii with 3 miatas lol

the M coupe is so badass. it sounds like a pissed off chainsaw.
and i hate you. It's cold as shit in frederick. My friend Pat goes to school in hawaii and he's always talkin about how awesome it is. :vash:
