What a lying ***** this guy is Final fitment check showed that I ordered the wrong oil drain flanges, and the oil drain lines fouled the drain flange hardware. Argh. Correct, longer flanges overnighted in, everything will ship tomorrow (Friday).

Edit. It occurs to me this can be misinterpreted. We = me; what we know we wants = the solution from the vendor we trust to get it right, even if it takes longer.

Hey Sav, I'm having issues with my K&N crank breather filter getting melty; specifically the part that clamps to the bung is soft and pliable. The current one is going to fall off if I don't replace it. I used to run a line from the port to a post-filter-pre-turbo bung however I have no accommodation for this anymore. Have you had any issue with this at all?

This is worked for me.

Sav, just wanted to let you know I am extremely impressed with the kit. It really blows the competition out of the water, with not much more cost. Great work. I already have an FM kit, but if I build another turbo miata for higher horsepower (likely) I will definitely be going with the Trackspeed EFR kit.
EDIT: I don't understand why practically every one of my posts get's downvoted to ****. All I was doing was giving some positive feedback on this kit, and 3 people decided my post sucks? I get that yes, I have 12 posts. Yes, I am a "newb". Yes, my post offered no new information for anyone to learn from. But is positive feedback on a product seriously worth 3 people to send my feedback rating to ****?

I'm on my 3rd week of driving with the new manifold and turbo. Things are going well, no problems to report from either. I found a few head/manifold nuts loose on their studs over the weekend, probably a result of my cross-country commute. After re-torquing them I haven't seen them loose since. Stage8 hardware is holding true and the studs haven't moved either. Replaced that breather filter with a parts store cheapie (non-k&n) and haven't had the melty issues since as well. Had to flush the brake fluid though, d4 brake fluid is already getting toasted without a shield

Intercooler and piping is next, yes. I have rough protos built but still need to polish them up and get first articles from my supplier. Concurrent development will happen on a heat shielding solution for the turbine/downpipe to keep the heater hoses, brake lines, etc. all happy and alive.
