Allow me he plans to run a MS from braineack, he wants mid to low 200's in the hp range. He just got some 15*7 TR wheels. There will be another egay megan racing turbo setup up and running in KY. But he seems to have the silly notion that we will run an intercooler, go figure. :magna: I am still hoping to sneack a WI system onto there when he isnt paying attention :P

i've only been on here for a couple of days and im already a whore.... I'm a low maintenance kinda guy so i prefer not to have more on the car to fill up than i have to. so no WI or NOS. just wanna have a fun little ride. havent turned n e wrenches in a while and finally broke the V8 chain, just wanted a cheap project... no such thing, right? still the miata is a blast stock, so i cant wait to start building power.

buffon01 04-21-2010 11:45 AM

Youre not a whore.......yet. Magna is.

WI = insurance

NOS = Faggetry

I wouldnt be surprise if you end up jumping in the WI wagon later down the road.

cottington 04-22-2010 12:57 AM

yeah magna mx keeps yammering on about it (WI). just want to make my turbo work first. seems simple enough tho. seems like i will also need a new clutch and rear end so add that to the list of needs too.

FRT_Fun 04-22-2010 01:02 AM

Yes, and probably a transmission eventually ;) Since we all know you will eventually need MOAR BOOST. Welcome... whore.
