You sure do have a way with people. :roll:

I mean seriously... if I want help from someone, I walk up and spit in their face before asking.

No, but seriously RS_OBD'oh_2 knows what he's talking about. In addition to that, he sent you links despite your ungrateful attitude.

Oh and another thing, there are 2 links at the to of the page that will do a world of wonders for you.

1) "Search", It is the 5th button over and will rock your world if you are literate.

2) "Logout [ bret94mx3 ]", it is the button on the far right. It will help purify the internet. ;)

the thing is... there are many of us who have donated $ and time to this site, and the pages herein. If you ask an easy / simple question, you may have to pay the price for not searching. Lets face it, if we did not reply at all, you would not find this information anywhere else.

If you spend 5 minutes wording your question, 2 hours arguing because you didn't adequately explain what you needed, and 2 days waiting for replies from people who honestly have nothing to gain from replying... You wasted 2 days and 2 hours.

People are entitled to act however they choose, that's their right. They don't HAVE to be a smartass, but if they want to... it's not your place to try and "put them in their place".

RS_OBD'oh_2 worded it best I think, but here's my take on the situation.

The people you're begging for answers have already answered the questions you're asking countless times. They've written FAQ's and walkthroughs and guides for years on the same subjects you are inquiring about.

If you'd put in countless hours, lots of thought, and effort into a project like that... and somebody joins the site and wants you to copy/paste a link to your thread because you aren't willing to put in a little effort and search... how would you feel? How about when it's the 400th guy to do it? On top of it he calls you names because of his own mistake?

Not trying to be a jerk, just food for thought. Eat up.

Sorry I freaked on you, I just figured it would be simpler to explain it bluntly. I made the same mistake last year when I signed up too, to be honest.

Anyways, is there anything else you need help with? I might not be able to answer a question, but I'm positive somebody else here could!

No problem =)

I'm not very good with anything Turbo related, but if you look in the turbo related FAQ you'll find a bunch of people that are much much more knowledgeable about them. I know Se7en is very good in particular, but I also know he does V6's. I'm not sure if he's done any i4s, but he would be a wonderful resource if you sent him a PM. He's also pretty good at describing things either generally or in great detail. I'd go to him, and others who post TB FAQs.

Good luck!! Post your results when you get it all set up, maybe do a work log too!

first off.. all turbo manifolds are just that. a turbo header? No idea what your are talking about. I asked you once before.. are you looking for a tube style?

The log I installed is good for 600hp, it's 1/4 inch thick and will never crack or warp. The $100 miata manis you see on ebay are 1/16 thick and are crap. If you want a tubular mani, JW can make them for you. It will be a few hundred, but he does good work.

BTW, Se7en has not posted in quite a while. over a year is my guess.
