Looks good lets see how the kit is quality wise, theres loads of threads on miata.net and mx5nutz about these kits and not all is good but good to see you've bit the bullet, can we have loads of pictures and a build thread please. £410 delivered have you got a link to where you got the kit also did you not get stung with import taxes?
What do you get in the kit i can see
intercooler and various pipework
exhaust heat wrap
turbo
fan
main air filter and breather air filter for the rocker cover
maybe a gauge and pipework of some sort
what i cant see is manifold
downpipe
cross over pipes
oil feed and return lines including return into sump
also what are you doing regards fuel and ignition, easiest and cheapest way is retart timing to 8degrees BTDC as apposed to the standard 10 (14 if its been adjusted for uk spec), and use a adjustable fuel pressure regulator. This set up was the origional way to do it when the first jackson racing supercharger kits came out but same applied to the old greddy turbo kits also. After that more money for timing cards then piggy back ecu's then full aftermarket ecu's but all that gets very expensive. Going to be watching this closely to see if some fabrication is needed you may be able to make full kits ie downpipe etc to sell on for both standard mx5 eunos owners aswell as exocet owners good luck and great to see more mods for the exocet turbo'd to around 200bhp should see awsome results for the car.

Miata/MX5s have terrible computers. The big guys use Motec, Megasquirt, or a piggyback system like E-Manage. Stuart, if you know someone that modifies the MX5 computer, let me know! I have a friend that is in need. If you are not going to do anything electrically, I would only recommend 5PSI.
Good luck!!!

Stiggy, I know you and the rest of the team are extremely busy cranking out Exocets, but have you made any progress on your turbo install?
