Good tip, I'll double check. I did it quickly when I installed the motor originally but I'm sure things have "settled" since then. I'll check it again.

Lol, another ~6 month gap in updates. To catch up to present time, I put about ~600 miles on the car with the turbo installed. Very impressed with everything, I've had almost no issues. That's about 1600 miles on the engine total, so far.
I installed the AC delete hose a few months ago:

Got some cool stuff for Christmas from my girlfriend. Revlimiter oil cap and a rechargable/hangable LED work light, it's sweet!

I also dropped my transmission thinking I had a rear main seal leak.. but I should have looked around before diving in. I'm pretty sure its just the CAS o ring, or potentially the valve cover gasket.
Looks dry!

I also ordered a blackbird fabworx roll bar, should be here soon after some mixups.
Lastly, with some help from a buddy we fabricated a 3" into (2) 2.5" exhaust. Sounds very mellow and civilized at low rpm. A bit droney right at 3k. MUCH quieter than the straight pipe dumping at the rear subframe that I had before.
Bumper is just rough cut (tin snips for a quick cut, I'll finalize with a little dremel cutoff wheel soon) Check it:

Can you update us on what you did for DP fitment? Did the PPF adjustment work? I am having the same issue.
Also, what lower radiator hose are you using for clearance with the hot side FM lower IC pipe?

Sure man, It's a Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8" 32 GB, using an app called AutoMate. It runs to a Sound Ordnance M100-2 100W x 2 amp that is mounted behind the glovebox. It sounds pretty good. I mounted the tablet with two simple aluminum strips and some velcro.
But to be honest, it would have been way easier (and probably cost the same, maybe a little more) to just a get a double DIN Android head unit. Something that's Android Auto / Car Play compatible. I spent nearly $400 on this set up and it ends up overheating on warm days (80+ degrees, I don't have AC). I even put a fan behind it. I need to figure out a cooling solution for it.
Here's some pics of the project though:

What engine mounts are you using? I have a feeling it has something to do with engine mounts. I'm using the Supermiata "hybrid" mounts. Anyway, I ended up just smacking the **** out of the downpipe, and then beating in some of the trans tunnel. My downpipe is pretty ovaled from hitting it. It fits fine now, though.

Damn, this is what I was worried about. I have the V8R mounts. I've already started beating the **** out of my firewall, but i think i will have to start bending up the DP as well.
What about the lower hose for the radiator ?

My bad I meant to answer you, I'm using FM's rad hose too.
https://www.flyinmiata.com/fm-lower-radiator-hose.html
I had all of this leftover since I ran a FM turbo kit originally.

Hello? Is this thing on?
I'm trying to rip around New Jersey Motorsports Park later this year at the Miata Reunion so I'm trying to track prep the car.
Sorry for the massive pics I don't remember how to scale them, lol
