I'm not sure what happened to all my other pictures but here are some more motor pics and my turbo and manifold

More of the install will be coming soon!  Hopefully this baby will be done soon so I can enjoy this 61 degree weather!

Hey Cory-
I know it's an old post, but can you still get the painted valve covers done for $95?  Can you do red?

Thanks!

Well, their turnaround is about 3 weeks when I did mine.

I'll check their prices again since it's been awhile, who knows with the economy!?

What kind of red/yellow combo dr bob?

Turbo setup looks sick, That's the one your selling for 500? Doesn't it spool faster then our stock turbo? What psi is it good for?

Sorry to see your having to sell your capri.

Yes, it is the one I'm selling for $500.  I do have some people interested so I guess we'll see how it goes.  Engine has ALL new seals and gaskets, including a metal head gasket and ARP studs from FlyinMiata.com.  Great guys over there.  Engine just needs pistons and rings and the crank.  I can get Pistons and rings for $175 and I don't remember what the crank was, I think around $275.  I'm going to miss my baby...

No, the head is the turbo head, the bottom end was the miata block.  After all the research I did and talked with numerous turbo Miata guys and 323 guys, this setup should be fine.  I still have the turbo block and maybe whoever takes the whole package with have that t block too.

I would love to buy the whole thing, if only I had the cash.

I hate to bother, but could you tell me about the rx7 maf? I plan to use a custom intercooler and 2.5 tubing, and saw you were using it, thanks man!

To be honest, I had one installed and never saw a difference. I suppose I may have not noticed the extra hp or 2 it might have provided.  When I did all the work to the IC and intake, I switched back to my XR2 MAF.
