Sam's 1.6 MX-3- LT Turbo project.

Good work love to see your progress. when are you going to swap out that stock B6 or are you planning on tweaking it with like matching cams and such.

I shall be fitting the B6 with a 323 manifold & VJ Turbo,
SPEC/centreforce clutch, AEM F/IC & boomslang harness,
larger injectors, FMIC with smaller width radiator and 2" - 2.5"
alu boost pipes, and possibly a larger bore exhaust down the line.

quick mock up with the spoiler
after i chopped it in half, gonna
be a involved job to make fit!

its going to work though

mirrors have gone in for painting

[youdirtyfox]

Mirrors back from painting!
test fitted them up with some
2" x 12 screws and some sticky
back draft excluder, just need to figure
out the three wire colours now.

What kind of mirrors are those? They look really good.

[youdirtyfox]

They are 92-95 Mazda MX3 Electric Door M3 GEN2 LED Side Mirrors
from jdmhondaparts off ebay.
Much prefer them now there painted!
bodyshop did some finishing work to them
as they were a bit rough round the edges.


They have the amber turn signal built in LEDs behind the mirror.

right thats enough of the show...
..its time to get some go!

AEM F/IC bought from US, arriving tommorow,
need to get in contact with these guys again
http://www.boomslang.us/aemfic.htm

then the only really big expensive buy after that is the clutch.

[youdirtyfox]

had a quick peek at how these
boost hoses I got are going to work out.
All hoses will be black and the alu joiners
will be swaged and maybe anodized black
... and yes youve guessed it , black hose clips too!

why did you cut the intake pipe? You could have just removed it and your air box to make room. you killed a working part for no reason. Don't get me wrong here, I love to see more boosted RSs. And your build is sweet. It just made me cry just a little. -> in a very manly way

[youdirtyfox]

NO need for tears ,I didnt do anything of the sort,lol
Those hoses laying on top are the ones I got
from the breakers of boosted motors! the intake pipe
is fully intact.

[RS_OBD'oh_2]

May I ask, how much did you drop on the boomslang harness?

[youdirtyfox]

of course, its not actually bought yet,
however the miata ones are $199
so im expecting it hopefully to be in that region.

[RS_OBD'oh_2]

damn. I can recall toning out my own harness with my telecom tools. Good on ya if you can get boomslang to help u out. What is your hp goal and injector cc?

[youdirtyfox]

yeh ive messed around with turbo looms before
splicing them into existing wiring, and its not something
Im great at, got a buddy who is , but plug 'n play just makes
it that bit easier. I'll post up the proper price once Ive heard back from them.

Just going for a really light pressure set up to begin with, running 7-8psi
on the VJ-11, so who knows what hp, may even just be 140hp so injector
wise not exactly sure on yet, I need to speak to the tuners. Miata 1.8 injectors? seem to do well on boosted 1.6 miatas over here.

long term plans are a bigger turbo, larger injectors, oil piston spray bars from a 323, as well as stronger 323 rods, but I'll want the electronic boost control before all that happens

[youdirtyfox]

smaller width rad ive been looking out for to try.
MAZDA 323 F 1.8i 16V petrol 06/89-04/9


and if it works out , this is the type of IC
I want to use.


wich means a real short inlet tract.

[youdirtyfox]

quick update on that spoiler.
Two hollow tubes i found around the home
hold it stable and true (ish)
as there is webbing inside for them to butt
up against






so much work is needed to make it fit, that no doubt it
will end up in the hands of the bodyshop.
