                so since boosting the car i am very happy, it drives great and goes mean as fck, so of course the next step is to add more parts.. lol.

                the clutch is starting to slip in boost, so i have a solution underway. it will consist of a '99 miata flywheel, act probe v6 hd pp and ss disc. still need to order the clutch kit.

                the '99 miata FW is 17lbs stock vs the earlier bp FW 20lbs iirc. step height is same on both. i figured this would be a nice upgrade for a dd.. had it surfaced and balanced.

                got a set of bp26 cams, but there were some minor dings on a few of the journals and lobes on the intake cam. nothing to cry about, but a little attention was needed. i just had them both polished. they check out in spec and look damn good!

                finally i got another vj20 turbine housing so i can get rid of the vj11 housing and dump and use my corksport dp.

                i had the wg hole ported as much as it could retaining the stock flapper. the inside is radiused nicely and should help with the boost creep i have now. bead blasted as well.

                here are some pics of the new vj20 housing, a corksport modified vj20 housing w/ a vf10 flapper, and a vj11. im already thinking about an external wg..lol....

                      If i were you i'd have the vf flapper put on the vj20 arm and port it out as big as the corksport one. Thats a real nice port job on the corksport piece.

                          bp26 cams in. clutch is crapping out so i cant really get on it. feels pretty good though. no issues, which is always good

                          this weekend im swapping turbine housings, putting in the FW and clutch (ACT KL V6 clutch kit.) and swapping out transmissions because my current gseries is one i built from two bad trannys after i blew up the f series trans.. it works fine but im gonna go with a different one. got some new seals and corksport braided clutch line.

                          check out the spare motor and fresh head waiting for build and 20 or so psi. the paint on the turbine housing is VHT flameproof paint, getting a cure in the pic lol. a couple friends have had some good results, figured what the hell..

                                I would have at least installed a six puck disc, sprung, but thats just me.

                                Where did you get the flywheel?
