One of my cowoerker lost my shift **** on the way to the powder coaters. I bet its on someones honda now. So I made a better one, its probably a half pound heavier than the old one.

SADfab BBK brackets! I went with 11" setup because the 11.5" is over 3lbs more unsprung weight per corner, and I hope I wont need the thermal capacity.

So I made one of those things by hand, which was a total PITA. I then modified it for 1.6 fitment, which required slotting 3 of the 5 holes and removing a chunk for the PCV. It would be pretty easy to make a 1 fits all valve covers.
I used 16ga SS and torched it to make it all gay rainbow for aidan.

I got 4 used GM coils from a truck, on the bracket with the harness and plug wire for $30, shipped, from ebay.

Heres the harness after i unraveled the cloth tape.

I unraveled it and oragami-ed it in a different way and made it fit pretty dam well with no cutting.

I kept my old igniter that had a fried tach circuit, and used that as a jumper box. It was full of robot jizz.

(I left the good igniter on the radiator, and now its on the freeway somewhere)
I removed the coil side plug wire contacts from the truck wires and re-crimped them onto trimmed miata wires.

Started right up and runs great. It wasnt $18.50, but the total investment was about $35.36.
Did a clutch interlock delete, finally.

The seller almost immediately doubled the price, lol.

This is the cheapest thing on there right now.

Initial spool report.
And should I install a restrictor on the wastegate? Notice all the EBC induced noise on the map and resulting injector DC/PW.

12psi by 3175rpm right before the wastegate opens, and 16psi by 3500rpm, but the wastegate started opening at 3200. 5th gear pull.
