First miata and its a turbo
 

just got my first miata,its a 1990 with a full diy turbo setup. it is running 5 psi now but will be upped as soon as i buy bigger injectors. we built a few supercharged jackson racing miatas at my work way back in the day and i always wanted one just never got to it till now. the full diy one page answers really helped me figure out where i am gonna go with this.

Pictures please. And a parts list. Did you do the work yourself?

What sort of engine management are you running? Welcome to the board.

i will put up pics/parts list right away. no i got the car off a guy in vancouver that built it.
i did a search on injectors and they are stock and it is running 5 lbs boost right now,but will be ordering b2600 injectors right away and working on upping the boost.

Welcome, and x3 on parts list/pictures also what did the guy tune it with?

Welcome, pics.

5 psi and stock injectors - I'm thinking an FMU.

Ah okay, I forgot about it having stock injectors.

yes its an fmu for tune, its a vortech i will take pics today as it was -26 here yesterday.

Yikes -26, I thought it sucked where I lived being 30-40, but wind chill makes it about 20.

and my wonderful 10 hour trip home out of 3 towns and 19 gas stations none had air,and forgot my tools/spare/compressor/jack/ had a great time dealing with it

exhaust manifold is a bentek? if i remember right from looking early this morning
vortech fmu.
msd boost control box
t28???? turbo someone might be able to look at pics and tell me
rx7 turbo intercooler(assuming off a 91 or so turbo2)
stock injectors(cleaned and flowed when turbo built
not sure of bov brand looks chinese could be wrong
mbc run off the intake
custom built downpipe into stock exhaust(was in vancouver so had to pass aircare)and it will be 2.5" or 3" soon
equus boost gauge had egt before ???? not sure if i will put one back in
and not sure if it is running wideband o2

now i am probably gonna get ripped on but the search only part helps me and i know every case is different i just need someone to give me a rough idea besides injectors what else i will have to add/tune/build to run say 10 psi
it is currently running at 5 psi

looks like a hacked up greddy kit. don't think its a t28.
you need engine management as the 1st and most important step towards 10+psi

ok that helps. what is the best route to go as far as engine management? and hope someone can tell what the turbo is then? i will get the numbers off it tomorrow at some point and throw them on here

That is definitely the turbo kit, right down to the wastegate and oil feed system. It's a 14b mitsubishi turbo. And as far as engine management, go Megasquirt or AEM EMS.

have seen a few hate threads on flat white on a miata but no pics so i did mine flat white over the last week. i will post pics asap(the only ones i have is on my phone so i will run out to the shop in the next day or two and take some pics.

couple bad pics off my phone

Probably need a new clutch in that old bitch to run 10psi.

has a new clutch(stock but new) and will not be rockin 10 psi for a while.

Might as well pitch the stocker today if you are going to up the boost. It's good for literally 20 hp more than the 145 that you likely have now.

still have 20' of snow so no point doing anything till i drive the car the first time. which from the weather network will be 3 or so months away

quite the hang time happenin there for the air filter...

i am redoing all the piping for turbo/intercooler/maf right away

One of the sticky threads in the "parts for sale" section is for Braineak built Megasquirts. Braineak is a site administrator here and builds them to order for your needs and sells them cheap. There is no better bang for your buck with regard to standalone ECUs for the Miata.

Welcome and good luck.

What's your location? Welcome. That's essentially the setup I started with. The more boost you add, the harder it is to keep a good tune. Hence my MS.

i am in prince george bc canada

Welcome looks like a great deal. Enjoy!

flat white with 17" anchors

I like the white, it looks even better with out the black stripe on the bottom.

Any idea on the weight of the wheels you have on now? They may just be anchors.

The 1.6 brakes look lost behind the big wheels :giggle: That is why I have 15's.

not sure on weight i will weigh one next time i have them off if i can find someone to help lift one onto a scale. it is not going to be a track car in any way just my dd with benefits

welcome! like the flat white, might have to do that to my dd. needs a paint job anyhow
