The intercooler piping is just a long tube that runs from the turbo in back all the way up front to the intercooler. You can see from the pictures that the exhaust runs all the way to the back and then the charge pipe runs back up front. Sounds crazy on paper but it works.

Tomorrow it will be tuned on our dyno and I will be able to tell you exactly how I feel about the entire setup. It looks really promising so far.


As far as upgrades... anything is possible. We are already working on quite a few mods and upgrades for this system. I think everyone here will be impressed with the changes when we get to implement all of our ideas.

I'm excited for tomorrow. See you then!

Forbes

haha! Don't tell me you are tired of the Miata already! I'd trade my G for that thing any day!

Your car is going to rock. You should have it back it tomorrow!

More pics are here. The little finishing touches are being finalized. The customer really wants the turbo system to be as hidden as possible and he wants to use the stock bumper so we are playing with a few options. The car will be back on the dyno today for more shakedown runs and a final tune.

We can't wait to get to it!
