Yeah, I know. It's for a Miata, but the details can be applied to the MX3 or any car. The most important thing is that this guy wrote it all down. <BR> <A HREF="http://www.miata.net/garage/turbo/turbo.htm" TARGET=_blank>http://www.miata.net/garage/turbo/turbo.htm</A> <A HREF="http://www.miata.net/garage/turbo/turbo2.htm" TARGET=_blank>http://www.miata.net/garage/turbo/turbo2.htm</A> <A HREF="http://www.miata.net/garage/turbo/turbo3.htm" TARGET=_blank>http://www.miata.net/garage/turbo/turbo3.htm</A> <P>The "continue" buttons on the page don't work, so I included all of the URL's here.<P>I went through this when doing my first turbo, and I highly recommend it for all of you that plan on doing the install.<P>BTW: I AM DOCUMENTING MY TURBO INSTALL AND THERE WILL BE A WEB PAGE DETAILING THE PROCESS. (TURBONETICS T3/T4 HYBRID!) THE MANIFOLD IS CUSTOM-MADE AND IN PROGRESS TODAY.<P>I'll be at the Dyno next weekend for baseline runs and initial photos. <P>...I got tired of waiting for a B6T<P>-RF

the miata turbo kit is worth every penny. only fabrication needed is the down pipe and some other plumbing of hard piping. from what i've gathered about $100 bucks from a muffler shop. :roll:

yeah man. Greddy has a CARB LEGAL kit for only $1600.00 (not a typo) without an intercooler.<P>A custom manifold and piping is not that expensive<P>RF
