So, wastegate is fine. I adjusted the arm as well, and now peak at 5psi and then it drops a little. That normal?

Stupid locknut is messed up though it flattened threads as I tried to bring it up to wear the endpiece now is. Noticed this and stopped. Need to dremel it off and take a die to the spot it screwed up.

Ha. I just figured out that this car used to be owned by redrokkkit who bragged more than once about how much he beat on it and called the current motor his 'experiment' motor....sweet....and I just sold the low mileage motor I had from my partout car. Meant tounge in cheek of course. Who doesn't beat on a car

On another note. I have the car apart and am 'nicing' it up. Putting the TT dp and brainstorm exhaust in. Cleaning up all the underhood gunk while I'm at it. Also depowered the rack last night. Gonna also dual feed the fuel rail and put the 1.8L injectors in. Then, I'll swap out the MSD box for the Bipes and the Vortech for the Begi and get it running well. I feel like I'm restoring it. Kinda fun

Hey man, sorry I never called you. I've been swamped with school lately.

The car looks really awsome. The foglights look sweet.

We'll have to meet up some time. If your getting rid of parts I'm interested. It's awsome that your here, this area is devoid of nice miata owners. They all look at me funny when I ask what they have done to it. Anyway, nice car!

No prob. Feel free to ring me up anytime, though I'll be out of town pretty much the 15th through the beginning of March.

March sounds good. I don't drive my Miata in the winter (the roads here are WHITE....WAY too much salt), and hopefully in March it will be Miata time again.
