Hey guys... This is MNIVET... My LS1 Miata ![Grin](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_grin.gif)
This car has been TONS of fun...
It was finally time to let go of the 507rwhp n20 set-up... it was FUN.. very VERY fun.. almost unstoppable on the street...
Most fun I have ever had in a car...
Its a go-kart on steroids...
but the car got boring quick!... tires didnt spin... ever... on nitrous... never spun...
the flat torque curve made it FEEL slow and I got used to it fast..
...on came the turbo setup...
car was really fun on motor only (391rwhp) as its only 2550lbs...
Youtube MNIVET for videos...
Anyway...
Heres my ALMOST complete turbo setup...
Here are the details and then pictures below![Happy](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_stretch.gif)
