...and to confirm, the rear is -6 or -10?

Purple would def be a special deal, but if you're serious I can look into it. I have a deep rooted love for candy purple.

-6 ORB for the rear fitting.

I also like candy purple. Let me know, otherwise black might be fine. Was just thinking if it'd be best to electrolytically oxidize the part before hand to reduce future fluffy white oxidation after years of service.

Picked up the first batch this weekend. Gaskets and fasteners should be showing up today or tomorrow. Get excited!

so excite

What would be the interest level of including a lower radiator hose with these? I was tinkering a bit and might have found an off the shelf solution that required minimal trimming to fit.

I'm hoping to get these shipped out on Friday, but can try to source some hoses if those would be valuable to you folks.

Lemme know!

I was gonna ask if someone had found an off the shelf hose that would fit but decided to wait until after they shipped lol.
I wouldn't mind having an included hose depending on the price.

I'd be interested in a hose or at least the P/N of what you found. No problem just getting it from you.

TheBandit 02-15-2017 10:24 AM

I'll try to confirm fitment on Friday and get some pricing. I can probably fit it in the medium flat rate box with the inlet so no extra there. I'm guessing $20 or so for the hose and a pair of hose clamps.

If anyone has no interest and just wants me to ship there part let me know and I'll try to expedite. I figure if I can help get a complete solution I'll do that, but I also don't want to slow down anyone's progress.

Sent you a PM

Gimpster 02-15-2017 12:25 PM

Hmmmm, I have every other product you make... sure would love to remove the stock 2 hose + gangster pipe on my car. Might have to do this.

psyber_0ptix 02-15-2017 12:46 PM

Can I request a product?

mrryanbaker 02-15-2017 01:18 PM

Can I PM you for the hose part #? My engine is still on a stand and I don't need the hose right away, but it would be nice to have later on.

Always!

I'm always looking for new ways to make Miata's great again! :)

As soon as I finalize the hose I'll make it public. No sense in not making it public knowledge. For some it makes sense for me to supply it, and for some it doesn't. I'm good either way.

That truly means a lot. I strive to only provide only the highest quality parts. It just doesn't make sense to bother if you don't from my perspective. :bigtu:

I really appreciate this.

Can you create a version of the EGR blockoff plate out of a thicker material so either a bung can be incorporated or even simply thick enough for a threaded NPT hole so we can source vacuum off the one hole that leads into the intake manifold.

I imagine with a 90° NPT hose barb, one could run a short segment of hose as vacuum reference for your FPR mount solution. Less T's, more compact and out of sight etc.

I bought an inlet. Definitely interested in a hose solution. Keep us posted.

TheBandit 02-19-2017 09:47 PM

The test fit this weekend went well and I think the hose that I had intended on using for my first prototype works just as well for the new ORB version.

My hope was to pick up some locally, but alas they were out of stock. :doh:

I've heard from a few of you on interst in having the hose/clamps included. If you can reply here or PM me and let me know if you'd like your parts shipped alone or with the hose that would be helpful. I don't want anyone to have to wait any longer than they need to, but I'm also overboard about testing to make sure things fit and finish is up to my standard.

I should have the hoses on hand later this week. For the initial buyers I can do the hose with two clamps for $16. The Gates PN is 20820 if you'd prefer to source it yourself. We include heavier duty liner worm clamps as well, but I don't have a PN off hand for those.

I'll add a item in our "Extra Items" link on our website shortly for those interested in adding the hose to their order. :bigtu:

Here are a few install pics :)
