New Miata Guy

[F1Luva92]

hey guys my name is Nathan, im new to the forums obviously. i drive a white 1992 miata. i am in the midst of putting a turbo on it right now. i took the head off myself and changed the valve stem seals. now im putting everything back together with arp head studs and a cometic head gasket. im doing a DIY kit, so its not GReddy or anything. im using a td05h turbo, innovate LC-1 and a MSPNP for those interested in the to-be setup. i cant remember the brand of intercooler however. after i get it all running with the turbo, im gonna put on the MAF removal kit that i bought.

i think thats most of the list if not all of it.

anyway, thats my intro.

Welcome to the board! Good luck with the build and especially with the LC1 (I've had trouble with 3 out of 3 that I've ever used).

MS is definately the way to go. I have it implemented in both of my Miatas (my own PnP concoction). However, DIYAutotune has done an excellent job putting together the MSPNP.

Welcome.
Yeah, about what Kev said above.
I remember his frustration...so best of luck to you.
Megasquirt is def the safest, easiest way to go...h/e, I am running 10lbs of boost on the stock ECU. Thankfully apart from my first zoom zoom boom & the subsequent rebuild operation performed by Dr. Kevin...I have not had any major issues due to boosting since. And I don't use a MBC because that's asking for trouble...haha (inside joke).
Regards.
