hey everyone im new to the site but not new to miatas. Ive onwed this one since my father left it to me in 2004. It has 24k original miles. I originally turbocharged it in 2003 but lost interest after money and time ran out. Recently i took off my bandaids and installed a mspnp! Ill post more pics when i have a chance. Also if anyone needs a begi afpr, bipes, or 255lph fuel pump pm me.

the turbo is powdercoated. it has been standing up too the heat fine. I had it done a few years ago for free. The sad part is the turbo is a t25 off a 300zx twin turbo with the compressor wheel and housing off a eclipse and its too small now for my power goals. Im running 12psi and am not getting anywhere near the cfms that i need. Getting a chinacharger gt2870. much like the turbo on the flyin miata kit

I built an aluminum heat shield for mine. It works well but I had a really hard time keeping it from vibrating. But my frustration finally paid off. I'm sure yours will too. Here's a pic KNAirFilter012.jpg?t=1254781651
