Hey bro love the progression of this miata! it was one of the inspirations that made me get one! i'm currently building it and was wondering when you had the revolution wheels on did you raise your engine to get that drop ?

I don't mess with the Megasquirt and I leave it to the professionals, so I guess they enjoy it lol

Nope left everything stock
In awesome news, Turbo has been purchased finally. The Engine looks like an engine again and got the new cam gears installed, and currently the Transmission is on the floor awaiting the new ACT clutch to go in. Got the Radiator Polished and need to make the For Sale thread for the Mishimoto radiator and Fans/Fan Shroud
Should have some more updates this weekend...fingers crossed

Nice man! Glad to see you finally stepping it up and making some power. Car did sound nice with the ITB's though, just a bit sluggish uphill it looked like.

Love the look with out the stupid water neck although the coolant lines for other things will be interesting to figure out.

Hey Ryan, where did you source your fuel rail fuel pressure reg. adapter? Having a real hard time finding one...

Hey man I ordered one through my local shop. It ended up being the exact same regulator adapter as the BRZ/FRS. It uses a 1/8" npt and I have it connected to a -6 xrp 45 degree. The stock bolts for the fuel pressure reg. work as well.

Just read through all of your build over the last couple of days...and wow. That's basically my impression from the entire build.

Since I did the Coolant Reroute and blocked the front off I had no where to put the fan switch, so I picked up a K-Series adapter for $20 off amazon

Took forever but everything is finally bolted down to torque specs, had to install the downpipe on the turbo and then throw it in the engine bay..
