Sav, any benefit to "upgrading" from the 4.2 to the 4.9? I believe my Innovate will let me do that if I change the cable and update the firmware, I just don't know if its worth it.

And for $30 you can get just the cable and source your own sensor.

Gordon, buy all that and install it before MRLS.

*Disclaimer, I have not ordered any of this, nor know if it works.

The upgrade works just dandy. We did it on my friend's car with an LC-2 when the connector managed to fall on the down pipe and melt. New cable and O2 sensor, switch it to 4.9 through the serial connection and it worked perfect.

Cool. Rear bung it is, then. I hope my current wiring reaches that far.

I'll be running this setup with a 5 speed. Until I break it, then I'll put in my other 5 speed.

After that.. I have no idea.

Just de-nubbed the 5 speed. Angle grinder through about half of it, then hit it with a hammer (the thin disk was getting bound up and I didn't want to lose an eyeball).

I have a 2001 Miata but am running a block from a 1994 with oil and coolant feed on the side of the block. What parts should I order? 1994-1997 kit or 2001-2005 kit?

Order for your chassis, not for the engine in it

Any idea on when you plan on having the intercooler kits ready for or close to production?

So the coating from Swain bubbled a slightly-larger-than a pea blister and chipped away. Looks like it goes through down to the manifold. Besides that no weird problems to report.
