Trackspeed NA/NB EFR Turbo Kits - Currently Not Available

I am getting close to pulling the trigger on a 95 with MS2 and M45 SC. If all goes well and I score the car I'll ditch the SC and pull the trigger on the TS turbo Kit. Already has ID750's some maybe just a fuel pump upgrade and exhaust will round things out.
Not sure which turbo. 6258 or 6758? Initial build will be stock block with 99 head, hotter cams and new junk 2 intake. Want to leave the door open for converting to S1 class so that's something to keep in mind too.

These are gifts from the Godz, delivered to man when they are truly ready for release and only when man has shown his worthiness to receive them by waiting patiently in humble silence.
(at least that's what I told myself while waiting for the manifold and downpipe; it helped a lot and the manifold and downpipe were worth the wait).

I'll never feel inclined to apologize for taking the time to develop stuff properly. The current DIY kit took like 4 years or something to properly develop and produce, and I caught endless **** for that timeline, but I've also lost count of the number of kits I've seen in use on HPDE or road race cars. In 18 months it has gone from unobtanium to the defacto standard for a road race turbo setup. If you want to build a turbocharged Miata and use it on a race track, you call me. If you weren't going to build a turbo car because you knew it wouldn't be reliable, you are now looking at half a dozen reliable cars and seriously rethinking that position.
Emilio's recent GTA-SLB win in Unlimited RWD was powered by a 6258 setup that required no wrenching. I was at ACS last weekend with a trio of Trackspeed-powered S1 cars, all of which spent the entire weekend shrieking through T1/T2 at 138mph+, at full boost in 6th gear for something like 35 seconds every single lap. Aside from an unplugged IAT sensor there were no mechanical issues on all three cars. There were at least five TSE-powered cars at MRLS, and as far as I know there were no mechanical issues on all five cars.
So yeah, it takes a while to make the stuff work. I like to get it right the first time, and if that means a little waiting, then so be it.

I've got my built motor finishing up in the next month or so, and I'd really like to get this car on the road, shaken down and ready for race season by early Q1. I'm ok with coming up with my own heat shielding solution. I'm just waiting on intercooler piping to be released. I'm not sure how much development is going to go on during the winter time for Andrew since he likes to QC his stuff on the track. I figure it would be best for me to come up with my own intercooler piping solution, considering where we are in relation to the upcoming race season. I went ahead and bought a Precision 350hp IC. The last thing I want to do is chase boost leaks in the intercooler plumbing system and FM's setup seems fool proof. I have seen a few NA's use FM's silicone piping kit with the TSE kit. Has anybody tried this on an NB?

Most subscribed to this thread have already seen this but I want to emphasize. The versatility and headroom of this kit is unmatched. We race the TSE EFR 6258 kit in the Maxxis Supermiata Cup series at a regulated 220whp. None of us in the series have had to touch our kits since install. Practice and race all weekend plus HPDE events. My full forged but otherwise stock BP4W doesn't even burn oil.
Load a new ECU map and do this:
Fastest Miata lap ever at Buttonwillow, by several seconds.

Goes without saying, but you want to use quality clamps and make sure they are tight. I thought mine were, but I was wrong, and popped a couple at 11psi on the dyno.

I thought the reason the FM kit had full silicone lines was because the original BEGI made FM kit had hard pipe and the position of the engine to the tub and the hardlines varied too much for it to fit every car. Or because this isnt targeted to wine and cheesers, there's sawsall involved and almost no one is going to care.

I assure you that no sawzall will be required for installation of our IC pipes. Do us all a favor and enunciate your ill-informed assumptions elsewhere, please.
