Fuck... Really? Dude I did my whole custom FMIC kit in like an hour... Man the fuck up and save some serious money by doing it yourself.

Holy fuck, 4" IC kit. Is this the new hyper? Waiting for 4" rear-mount godly intercooler mount. JDM azz fuck

Lulzzzzz :)

This is everything you need to build an IC kit for a GReddy kit. I messaged just-intercoolers (sellers name) on ebay and he made a package up for me. I paid about $290 shipped for everything. THere is a DIY somewhere on here as well, that's where I got the photos from.


ebay auction #: 250398542130(IC0036) $83
4x 90* 2''
4x 90* 2.5''
1x 45* 2''
5x 2'' coupler
3x 2.5'' coupler
1x 90 coupler 2.5''
1x 90 coupler 2.5'' to 2.0'' reducer
9x 2.5'' t-bolt clamp
11x 2'' t-bolt clamp

the one you listed will need just as much if not more modification to work. If you buy what I listed, all you need to do is make a mount for teh IC and get a hacksaw to cut the piping.

read the five hundred million fucking threads here about different setups.

then either
1) buy universal and fab up
2) pay out the ass for a begi or fm kit
3) suck cock

You may pick two.

It literally took me 2 hours to do the whole thing.

Combined shipping deal on 1 & 3?

I LOLed :bowrofl:

hahaha :bowrofl:

My friend got one, the quality is better than I expected.

What? A blow job?

hacksaw=hate and discontent (loose)

pipe cutter=fast, easy, even cuts (win)

Save the money and buy a mig...I have one of those on my list.

i loled

...and rear mount turbo!

Between these 2 threads I diy'd mine. Search is your friend. https://www.miataturbo.net/showthrea...t=43560&page=2 https://www.miataturbo.net/diy-turbo-discussion-14/my-greddy-i-c-build-41598/

Now I'm coming from the 06+ civic Si world. I was ready to boost, in fact almost all my parts are sitting behind me in my room (wishing I was going to install them) but I decided to get a Miata and boost that, and keep the Si as my DD. With that said, I have researched a lot and know a lot about going turbo from an NA motor, but there is always more to learn. The Si guys all buy full pre-made kits, because it's expensive to find a good shop to weld together the charge piping, and there would be too many couplers because of all the bends to get everything to fit. For example: Some piece them together, but most of them are set in stone by manufacturers (Full-Race, JoTech, SSA, AJP, SRT, etc). Tubular manifolds costing around $1k will net you the best flow and absolutely zero boost creep. For example:

So what I'm trying to get at is: When turboing a Miata, is it a smarter decision to piece together the best parts individually (FMIC setup, mani, injectors, turbo, etc) or to purchase a kit that's already made?
