Post by Bangbug »

Hello all....
Yes, it is well overdue for a thread. But tell me what isn't overdue!
Nobody say "preemies".

Anyway.

Ground down a brace so it'd fit. I know.. block braces, I need a turbo! lol.

And because I am useless and can fabricate nothing (well actually, if I had the tools I'd be fine)
A mazda "Miata" aka MX5 bp1.8 exhaust manifold.

Yeah... so as you can see, it's Puma Spin 1.
I'm following good old Prestons guide, thanks Preston, sweet guide and thanks for getting a buy together.
I need a few more surface mount parts so that's where I'm stuck at for the moment.
A little busy at work... it's Easter and I'm here. Sigh.
Going to run batch injection and waste spark off a crank trigger wheel.
It'll do, I don't need sequential yet.
Will hook up and run the spark on the 12V on the puma once it's built via 2x J701's a a waste spark subaru coil.
Same crank trigger wheel set up. That'll give the unit some real world running time before FINALLY swapping in the FE-DOHC.
Speaking of which, it's the 10:1 version, wanting to stay NA... but that was 2 years ago... now I want some boost once I get it in there... so that'll be 2 years after I get it in :( lol. Nevermind.
I still drive what came from the factory with 86hp harder than the 450hp Porsche next door so 150ish will be AWESOME.
What more do you want to know?
I take size 11.5 US shoes, 10UK and like motorbikes.
That covers it I think. hahahaha
