Howdy, I guess its time I introduce myself, I'm Chris aka Downmented, located in the DMV area, and I have a Miata that I want to do things with.
Currently the car has things on it, that make it do stuff like, -BC coilovers -Janky ass ebay intake -Noname header with roadstersport exhaust Just recently ordered the Fab9 EFR Plan for the "build"/ Project for now are to get the turbo setup installed, and get it tuned safely for the stock block, which I already anticipate not lasting too long. I dont really have any goals with the car, just more power, and more fun. List of items that I already have ordered, or are on the list to order, Already ordered -Fab9 sidemount manifold -Fab9 downpipe -EFR -Tial MVS 38mm ewg -Intercooler Core Need to order, -AEM EMS4 -Injectors (open to suggestions) -DW301 in tank fuel pump -Full clutch kit Considering a happymeal kit(Open to suggestions) -COP setup, likely the FAB9 pnp kit -Will have custom intercooler pipes fabbed up from a local fabrication shop A few questions I have for you guys. -I know the MS ems comes with the parts to delete the MAF sensor, and it does not appear as if the AEM has that option with the kit, what all do I need in order to delete the MAF entirely from this setup? -Other than a compression check prior to all of this, and getting the EMS installed and functioning, is there any other items I should address prior to moving forward with this turbo project? Attached are a few photos :) (End result- built motor with high compression pistons, full e85, aiming for ~550whp. Read through thread for all the info!) |
Are you going to Tysons tonight?
|
There is a strong possibility that I will be there tonight, yes. Who the pewp are you? lol
|
I remember your turbo picture on DMV Miata, and you said you where ordering a fab9 kit. Just creepin'
I asked which turbo it was, then commented on the compressor diameter = 6258 |
Thanks for joining, Downmented!

Welcome, I have also just started a build planed around this same setup except im building a motor looking forward to your progress!

I don't think that turbo will boost low enough to not bend your rods.

And to tell you I don't think that turbo will boost low enough to not bend your rods. |

I see an exploded stock motor in his near future also.
Also, just moved in to a new house this past weekend, and the miata has a new home! |

Well, I've come to the realization that I need to go ahead and build the spare block before I put the turbo kit into the car so that way everything will go in at once. So I've begun pulling the spare block apart a little bit at a time when I have free time. This block was removed from the csr just over a year ago when I was on vacation and the car broke down.
So far I have the head pulled off of the spare block, next will be to pull out the rods and pistons. Recently ordered- Aem ems4 Fab9 COP kit FM 36-2 trigger wheel Still waiting for- Fab9 turbo manifold Downpipe Tial mvs wastegate Oil/ coolant lines / fittings Motor build plan- Manley rods Wiseco pistons (undecided CR) 99'-00' head Likely run the begi intake manifold Supertech +1mm valves and springs ARP Hardware ACL bearuings Boundary engineering oil pump Super miata damper Once i have the rods/ pistons and bearings I will take everything to the machine shop so they can work their magic and assemble the bottom end. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1441401279 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1441401279 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1441401279 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1441401279 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1441401279 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1441401279 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1441401279 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1441401279 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1441401279 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1441401279 |

That downpipe is a beast!

sexytime.
I almost want to change my setup now, but i'm too lazy. Are you considering swaintech or any other coating for the manifold and downpipe? |

Well, since my last update, I have transitioned into a new job, gone to Vegas for SEMA, and taken my family to Disney World, giving me little time/ money for the Miata.
Recently received/ Ordered -ATI damper -Wiseco 10.5:1 83.5mm pistons -Manley H-beam+ rods. (special order so they're 2 weeks behind) Next week I will place my order for everything for the cylinder head -BP4W head - Supertech +1 Intake Valves - Supertech +1 Inconel Exhaust Valves - Supertech 63lb double spring set (unless someone suggests a heavier spring for any reason) - Buckets, valve seats - Bearings for bottom end, likely ACL pending availability - ACT 6puck sprung clutch / flywheel kit ARP head studs/ oem head gasket Things I will still need to source/ decide on (will be running %100 E85 since i have multiple stations locally) -Square top intake manifold -Fuel rail/ ID1000 injectors -Fittings/ line for fuel system -AEM Fuel Pressure Regulator -DW301 In tank fuel pump -LS coil conversion -70D AWR mounts -6spd Transmission -BE oil pump -Coolant re-route -Radiator (undecided on which one at the moment) There is still a hand full of smaller items that I will need to address once everything is together and running, but making progress none the less. Unfortunately the machine shop I'm going through has an 8-10 week turn around time :/ Some pics of the pistons https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1453313051 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1453313051 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1453313051 |

it's gonna make stupid power I had a lot of amazing results on my previous project with high compression and e85 so its a no brainer for me. Hopefully I am able to get everything together within the next few months, I'm getting anxious lol |
Wish I had easy e85 access.
Can I borrow your garage?! Also lmk if you want my axleback. I'm getting a quiet muffler now. I'm too old for this hullabaloo even though the deadening we did helped a bit. |
