ebay, and yes screw straight up and just a few wires to the fender indicator for the mirror flasher and to the control unit to make the mirrors move up and down left and right.

Re: Sam's 1.6 MX-3- LT Turbo project.
Had a nice delivery from Oz. this morning, my adjustable wastegate bracket>
fits like a charm! Just the downpipe to make now and some more purchases, ie clutch and injectors and the kit is pretty much all there!
Had a quote for mapping the AEM piggyback of just under £400, so that's another expense to be factor in to the conversion, will be seriously looking into a street tune though using the laptop maybe depending on how difficult it looks to do.

Re: Sam's 1.6 MX-3- LT Turbo project.
Haha I knew would see it eventually. Im going to stick with the 215/40's and add just a flick of negative camber just so that tread
pattern tucks under the arch and with another -10mm off the coilovers I think she will be there![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
Tires are coming off the weekend then the wheels can be prepped for some refurb edges and paint!

3SGE 315cc Toyota MR2 pink top injectors bought. Part no. 23250-74080.
Will want them to go for an ultrasonic clean before installing though. They are plug & play on the Miata, so here's hoping!

Re: Sam's 1.6 MX-3- LT Turbo project.
Sam they should be plug and play since your car is B6DE you should already have oval injector plugs. Worse case is swapping the injector plugs ![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

Re: Sam's 1.6 MX-3- LT Turbo project.
Had not seen your reply Josh as I didn't get a notification weirdly. Injectors have oval plug sockets so its all good ![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
Pretty much decided on the downpipe flange now, just waitng for them to come into stock again.
Plan is to weld a plate over the oval hole, then ovalised one end of a 180 degree 2.5" pipe, then cut that exact oval shape out of the plate.
![Image](http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b393/djsonofsam/KGrHqNHJBsFCEWGORpBQpQUgf5m60_12.jpg)
Although I think these type are made to take a 3" transition pipe ( oval to round in a very short distance)
Could do that but then it would need a cone reducer (which I have made just for the fun of it) down to 2.5"
which might push out the distance too much...
