    Great question, our local 1/8 track in Miami doesn't require it (see link here: http://www.countylinedragwayinc.com/rules.htm) plus the purpose of my build is to have both a street/strip car so I can enjoy, daily drive my ride dude.

    Most likely in the near future I will upgrade to a full rollcage, aluminum seat with 3" inch SFI rated harness, that will be estimated after I re-tune the car.

    The past week has been so hot here in Florida I feel pity for anyone who would to dare to wrench on his/her car....

    I finally installed the Cool-it Thermotec heat and sound deadener I purchased from my friend Alex a/k/a Speedworks. Thanks again Alex!!! It was a lot of work, Uff!!!! After that I completed the interior, I dropped the car at the body shop for a fresh coat of paint. I will post pictures of the final outcome once is completed most likely 2-3 weeks from today. As for now. I am going to take a break and enjoy the rest of the summer with my family and my son.

    The project is practically done. No more wrenching for me!!!

    Thank you. I agree, the FD seats look good on the Mazda Roadster as the reclining part of the seats sits lower than the standard NB02 seats. I am saving the interior pictures until the car is painted which is like 2-3 weeks from today. I was a lot of work but I am finally done with the interior.

    The car returned from the paint shop. It looks amazing!!

    I still have to clean the interior and find a good camera to take better pics but here it is next to my brother's 240Z.

    Thank you Martin. Today I installed front bumper, brand new wastegate and reconnected halos lights again. I was swapping the new injectors but one of the spacers at the fuel rail fell from the cylinder head and couldn't find again...

    There has been a change of plans.

    The past weeks I have been working on installing the Hydra and redesigning some of the components from my old turbo kit. I decided to simplify things in order to have a more reliable/mechanical set up. I spoke to Jeremy of Flyin' Miata in order to confirm some of my questions and in order to design a simpler turbo set up.

    As of today, I eliminated the following.
    1. EGR valve
    2. EGR pipe
    3. VTICS solenoids and sensors
    4. VTICS vacuum lines and fittings in the intake manifold
    5. MAF sensor
    6. Installed EGR blocking plate on manifold.
    7. Relocated the IAT sensor to intercooler.
    8. Adapted a bigger vacuum line for TIAL BOV in order to have the best response possible.
    9. Installed ID1000 fuel injectors.
    9. and last.... Designed a 2.75" BOV pipe for the TIAL BOV which is the same diameter of the Skunk2 throttle body. I have to update the thread sometime later, in the meantime here are pictures of the BOV pipe. it look amazing! best part it doesn't have any visible welds, I think it looks pretty cool and matches my coolant reroute perfectly.
