Sounds like you aren't ready to turbo your Miata. Not being harsh just pointing it out I was tying this exact response, you beat me. One who cannot afford to go out and buy 500 bucks worth of injectors, cannot afford a turbo miata. |

Yes you can run it. You will need to wire the wastegate flapper in the open position and hope that you do not have enough boost creep with the flapper open to go over your available fuel. The system will likely still generate a pound or two of positive manifold pressure. As has been the case before, sometimes you will end up with 8 or 10 lb of pressure even with the wastegate all the way open which is why people are cautious in their advice to you. Set your overboost protection at 4 or 5 lbs on your megasquirt.

The previous owner already ran it on the voodoo box for a while I'm assuming, so it's fairly safe to say you can drive the car without too much worry.
At wot, how many psi do you get at say 4-6k rpm? |

So the previous owner set up a VooDoo box Piggyback on the stock ECU. The car is actually running really, really rich right now. Idling at about 11-12, WOT is 12-12.5, and cruising is 12-13 (On average). I bought a MegaSquirt but I need to cut out the Voodoo and resplice the wires I think because the car turned over but wouldnt stay on with the Piggyback still wired into the wire harness with the MegaSquirt on.
