Default Flyin' Miata DIY Turbo Kit

For the past few months I've been browsing Flyin' miata and Bell Engineering for turbo kits and I noticed that Flyin' miata had a DIY kit that only came with what you wanted. But just today I noticed that its no longer on their website, does anyone know what happened to it? and is they will be bringing it back?
It seemed like it would be the cheapest option for a turbo build considering it was just like the fm2 kit just missing the voodoo box or hydra and injectors but that wasn't a problem since I want megasquirt.
Anyways if people don't know why, how do I go about contacting them if its a mistake or if they are not selling anymore?

But they used to have an actual DIY kit that allowed you to not select the injectors and remove the gauge pod and the downpipe and now you have to keep them selected.
It used to be called the Flyin' Miata custom spec turbo kit

I wish I had a photo of it
It contained everything from an FM2 kit but you were able to leave out the hydra box and the injectors, the turbo, really anything you wanted.
I have sent an email to Flyin' Miata to see how come its been taken down. That's the kit I wanted to buy in a few months

I remember that too. Now it's gone.

I'd suggest to just email them with exactly what you want. They've always been very helpful to me with that type of request. It may take a while before they get back to you.

That is exactly what I'm talking about. Thank you, but do you know why it's no longer available?

Because FM changed their site and did not put it back up. Honestly you need to call them and ask. I am doubtful Keith did it on purpose, but who knows. None of us here work for FM and can tell you why they do things.

It is back but sadly it's a bit more expensive. About $300 more

Placed my order. If you want, mruskoo, contact me via pm. May have a deal for you.
On another note,

Can I use an aftermarket BOV with their kit?
The way theirs plugs/plumbs in to the intake piping looks much different then the aftermarket ones.
