Will make a thread once it's running just to say if there is any difference at all. From looking at the IM's I noticed the curved neck has a vertical seperator at the TB whereas the straight neck has a horizontal one. Not sure if this is an improvement. My friend also noted that it seems the curved neck may be designed better with all the runner lengths etc. Gonna go work on the car soon and hopefully get it started up! :D

That engine bay is marvelous, those ITBs are awesome, what kind of numbers where you throwing up with the ITB setup? And did you tuck away your fusebox and whatnot or move it into the cabin somewhere?

Thanks everyone! I never brought the car to the dyno, but I did raced my friend's 240sx with a SR20SDET swap with all bolt ons (stock turbo) and I beat him by a car length. That car was fast for being N/A!!!!! when it was turbo I would have corvettes for breakfast and was pretty even with some full bolt on STI and SRT4s...

The fuse box for the chassis went underneath the radio where the stock ECU used to be. The only wires going into the engine bay where for lights and alternator, speedometer, and guages. I was running Megasquirt so I made that into a separate harness that I built.

Interior :love:

That ITB Miata needs less clutter :welder:
