TURBO BUILD-OFF on YOUTUBE
Hey guys just want to share my new YouTube build series that my friend and I have started. We both recently bought Miata's and after driving a turbo Miata we decided that turbo is the way to go. But we both have VERY different opinions and ideas for a turbo build. So we decided to document and share our experience throughout our individual builds and compete against each other at our local track. We just recorded our introduction but with spring just around the corner more videos are soon to come.

So the builds end up exactly the same?
1. Megasquirt and wideband. Learn to tune.
2. Install FlowForce inejctors, retune fuel.
3. Install stronger clutch, FM or ACT only.
4. Install 1.8 rear end.
5. Install good turbo hardware.

In the end the build series is more of a fun way to document our experience and share it as well. Our personal build videos will specify our differences. Stay tuned.
Thanks for the support.

I'm sure there will be similarities in our builds. But the biggest difference will be budgets. All the things you mentioned are defiantly some of the upgrades we will be doing since they are necessary to do for any turbo build. But differences will be ECU versus FMU or buying a used prefabbed kit versus DIY downpipe for a junkyard turbo off a Subaru. My car(Red) will be a more buy the parts that are ready to bolt on. My friends(Green) will be more of a "Creative" build, by using second hand and/or fabrication to complete his build.
