    Thanks! It's basically done. Just buttoning everything up.

    Thanks to Ken at Garage Star, I've got these fender braces to add before we put the fenders back on. Ken was looking out for me and knows it will be much better to put them on now rather than to have to tear down the front end again in the future.

    Another piece of the puzzle, just waiting on the manifold and turbine to be done at the ceramic coaters.

    What a great looking compressor housing! I'm all in for tidy looking turbos!

    I can finally say I have a turbo Miata.




    Took a celebratory photo after taking a short drive.



    Also installed fender braces from Garage Star



    I also finished my Zoom winker wiring like a pro. Individual heat shrink over each connector, braided loom over it all, terminated with a larger heat shrink.




    The car has been down for about two months, and we've done a lot.

    Install Torsen
    Install full exhaust
    Install Garage Star fender braces
    Install MkTurbo kit
    Install oil lines
    Drill pan for drain
    Swap valve covers
    Add Joyfast bolts
    Install boost gauge
    Extend IAT wire
    Install Zoom side winners
    Had pipes welded and turbo ported by Wrench Masters LLC
    Had hot side ceramic coated by Engine Armor Coatings
    Installed Garage Star tow hook
    Installed rear mud flaps
    And I'm sure I'm missing stuff.

    I think this is officially Ver2 of Lobo. Finished the turbo install, full exhaust, Torsen, Zoom winkers, Garage Star Fender Braces, and finally, my Trap Spoiler and OEM trunk with the KG Roadster brake cover.






    I like the wing a lot. It looks better in person, but I haven't been able to take a good pic from the side/front.

    Looks really cool! Lucky NA guys; the fact that this is flat makes things heaps easier.

    That panel is very nice!

    Any plans for a bigger radiator?
