Russell, the new guy here from Colorado Springs area. Bought my first 2002 Miata a few weeks ago. Base model with some added options. Excellent condition with 31k miles. Searching and researching the abundance of info about putting a turbo in my new ride. Currently leaning towards a Flyin Miata package. The thing is, every time I do a search I learn something else I didnt know! Hopefully I can get to a point where I am comfortable spending some $$$.

 

Welcome to the forum.

Wouldn't hurt to take a trip up to FM and ride/drive some cars. Get an ear full while you're there.

 

Hey, welcome to mt.net! Hit up matthewsdesigns, he's got a dope 1.6 turbo miata that he made 260whp with. One ride in that car and I guarantee you will be hooked.

Perhaps we could meet up when i make the trip for pikes peak this year .

 

Thanks for joining, rdcolorado!

 

Welcome to the forum. Funny, that search button has the same effect when I use it

Like Fireindc suggested shoot me a PM if you want to have a look at my car. It's an NA, but you'll see what you are missing regardless.

 

Well, the whole reason I am looking to put a turbo in my new ride is a friend I work with brought his NA with an FMII turbo in and let me drive it. HOLY CraP!! I couldnt believe the difference. He was running at 8psi at the time.
It was like it was not gonna stop picking up speed! So, I guess I will be parting with some $$$ in the near future. I may have to take a ride over on the other side of the mountains to visit those Flyin Miata guys too.

 

Welcome to MT and say goodbye to your money, it will all go on your Miata

 

LOL - 8psi is "cheap" + "reliable". 12psi is the fine line of "relatively inexpensive" + "relatively powerful" + "relatively reliable"
