      Ferdi, your ****s tight.

      Speaking of tight, looks like it'd be a PITA to wok on anything under your hood.

              Ah, the Miata head is missing the nipple that goes to the oil cooler.

                    There is something in the way, I forget what though...maybe to stock coolant sensor with the green plug?

                        Just a quick update. I finally mounted the Enkei's on the car, but the rears rub the strut body just a bit. I ordered some 5mm spacers from a company based in Florida and just found out that they shipped from Washington ! So, instead of having them tomorrow, I'll get them next Wednesday. Which means I'll have to cancel my dyno appointment for Monday to later in the week. Seems like nothing is going smoothly with this car, lol.

                        So, anybody want to guess how much power it'll make at 15psi, 20psi, or maybe even 25psi? I haven't decided for sure what max psi I'll go for.

                          probably somewhere between 300-375 whp maybe more depends on the tuning and how long you wanna spend on the dyno lol, also how much psi you want to run still way more than me. i am at 225 whp still have alot of head work and other thinds to do to reach even 300 whp which is my goal
