Hello

I though I would introduce myself and pick up some general information on where to start my project.

I'm Tom and I come with a little bit of mechanical experience however most of my back ground involves older oil cooled carb motorcycles and not cars though.

I have a 2002 MX5 with 80k miles thats a manual.

I wish to turbo my Miata for cheap(ish). I have been running a 35 shot zex kit for a while but Id like a more permanent power additive.

I have access to a small machine shop and plenty of steel/aluminum from work. I also have access to almost any tool I will need.

My plan is to start with proper fuel management (MS) and then pick up a cheap ebay kit. With the eventual goal to change the turbo out for something used/rebuilt that's a bit nicer.

HP doesn't matter so much to me as long as I can get something that feels similar to a 35hp shot of nitrous but more legal to use on the street.

 

Welcome.

MS is the right way bay eBay kits are not.

Check out MKturbo here on this site. The highest quality "cheap" kit on the market. Utilizes a wonderfully affordable eBay turbo, but the rest of the kit is hand made quality components that will outlast your average eBay kit 10:1, at least.

Don't but an eBay kit, just don't.
