Best and probably ONLY complete turbo system that is emissions legal.

Purchased and installed with a friend, As a basic DIY'er I can attest to this kit being incredibly complete and the instructions as good as they can possibly be. I literally needed nothing from the local car parts place. They have it configured down to the last zip tie. Application 2001 LS 6-Speed. Added the coolant reroute at the same time. Caught oil pressure and start from the first turn of the key. That's a rarety for my projects.

Sorry to hear that. We’ve shipped dozens and dozens of kits in the last six months. As soon as they come into stock, they sell. The best way to ensure you get one is to sign up for notifications and be ready to act. We’re working hard to get on top of demand and have them in stock all the time. Sorry we weren’t able to get one to you.

You guys are the pinnacle of Miata parts and performance, always finding new ways to better all miatas. I'm wondering if you ever thought about trying to convert a 1989-1995 Miata obd1 to 1996 and up, to obd2? If so, how far did you get before scrapping the project?

I'll answer this one by referencing our 1.8 swap instructions for NA6 owners. We suggest keeping all electronic parts and wiring on the NA6 chassis unless you're looking for a long, tedious project with little to no benefit. I know everyone has their reason for a certain mod but I'm not seeing a benefit on this one. What's your angle?

That depends on how much you use the extra power. If you stay out of boost, it won’t change noticeably. If you’re using boost, you’re making more power and you will burn more fuel.

For a 00 miata with a stock bp4w, if i install this kit along with a squaretop intake manifold, will the voodoo box accomodate it?
@FlyinMiataVideo6 ай бұрын
It should. Our turbo squaretop testing was on a 350 hp engine, and the squaretop didn't make any difference until the engine got above 6000 rpm. At the lower power levels here, it may not make any difference at all. It would be a good idea to use a wideband O2 to monitor air/fuel at the top end as you set your boost to make sure.

TLDW: Do the new manifolds allow fitment of other T25s like the Borg Warner? Or are they designed around the GT style turbos?
@FlyinMiataVideo6 ай бұрын
All of our turbo kits are designed for genuine Garrett turbochargers - Garrett has always been our go-to choice for long-term reliability and power at a reasonable price. FWIW, our NA/NB and NC turbo manifolds do utilize the T2/T25 bolt pattern. Also, the turbine outlets we designed for our turbo kits utilize the standard 5-bolt Garrett turbine housing outlet bolt pattern.

Question regarding the EGR, on a stock tune would there be any issues deleting/blocking off the EGR system? For someone with an AUDM car, pretty much every header/turbo manifold is incompatible with the EGR we got here, so just wondering if there would be any damage to the engine if this system was removed, or rather blocked off?
@FlyinMiataVideo6 ай бұрын
To keep me out of trouble, I'll answer your question referencing the US spec 1.6. which doesn't have an EGR system from the factory. Our piggyback system, the Voodoo box, doesn't calculate for the EGR system. In short, if your county, state, country, galaxy, or universe doesn't require an EGR system, the turbo kit will still work fine.

What would be involved in switching my Mazdaspeed NB factory turbo with the Flyin' Miata Big Enchilada kit to the new turbo kit? Feasible?
@FlyinMiataVideo6 ай бұрын
Because the Big Enchilada was designed to work with factory turbo components, it's not really compatible with our complete kits. There are a few parts such as the intercooler that are shared, but the majority of the kit is different. Even the bypass valve is different as we had to match the MSM port size. The best option might be to remove your complete MSM turbo system and sell it separately. It's hard to justify that, we'll admit.

Why don't you sell Vodoo boxes separately???? I have your kit with Hydra Nemesis, and I want to be Cali compliant, and you won't sell me that Voodoo box...what's up with that??? And yet you sell that conversion AFM elbow! Unfair!! Very unfair!! 5 speed or 6 speed?
@FlyinMiataVideo6 ай бұрын
Because of the way the Voodoo Box interacts with the emissions system, we cannot sell it unless it’s part of a kit with an EO. Sorry about that, but we have to work within the law. As for your transmission choice, it’s a matter of gearing. A 5 speed with a 4.1 is a good all-around match, a 6-speed with a 3.6 is more challenging to find but gives you some nice freeway legs.

@FlyinMiataVideo I have an unaltered, stock emission system. My car passed the smog in California last year. Minus the suspension mods, my car is stock. I have a second engine with your kit, and the only two things that prevent me from dropping this engine in my chassis is a need to install the elbow and voodoo box. Complainant CA parts to bring it to a legit CA state. You refuse to sell compliance parts, but you sell parts for the off-road use. Ridiculous!

@@RideShootDrink Sorry for the frustration. We do not sell parts "for off-road use", as that is not a legal category of parts or cars. The AFM conversion kit does not remove or alter any stock emissions components. The Voodoo Box does, which puts it in a different class legally and why it can only be sold as part of a complete, compliant system. It may seem ridiculous to you but it's how the law works. Please contact our customer service department directly and we'll see if we can work something out for you.
