    I used to hear "Turbo Lover" on the radio all the time. Then I put my turbo. I didn't hear that damn song for like 6 months after that. I kept waiting, listening to the hair metal station. lol

    Boost me up, Scotty.

    no hatin' here. done it twice. the second time was done waaaaay better than the first. you get sort of paranoid about new sensory inputs when turbocharged.

    Dude, just messing with ya, heck I don't even know what BTDTDWTDIA, means!


    I will be going with the FM Turbo kit (and clutch), AEM to run the whole thing; Trackspeed Engineering for the radiator and their 'Yota cops. I think I'll be ok! ;)

    Should be a decent street setup. stick to your power goals.

    Should be a good setup. I recommend Trackspeed's iconel studs if you plan any track time. Most turbos like to escape if you really thrash on them. For the AEM if you are not familiar with it hopefully you know someone that is. I played with one for a few minutes and there are almost too many options.

    Sweet, thanks for the input regarding the studs, I want the "incidentals" like fuel line and the like to be "over engineered". Track time? Nope, not really in the cards. What racers call "consumables" I call "eating into my skiing,surfing,rock climbing and traveling budget"... ;)

    But I want a sweet ass ride of a Miata!
