Hold on,....just about there,.......one more second,.......rrriiiggghhhtttt,.....NOW. There are 2 different kits out right now, one (Tripoint), has been out for like 4 months, Flyin Miata just released theirs, and Spool ITS has a starter turbo kit. Have you been under a rock for the past 6 months? just kidding!

If that's too much, you might be out of luck. The first ten units of the Flyin Miata kit ate $2900, and after that they will be mid $3000. The spool kit is $1600, but thats only the turbo, manifold, and oil lines. The websites are www.flyinmiata.com , the turbo isn't on there yet. You have to call to ask about it. The spool is www.spool-turbo.com . Mazdaformance is also in tho process of making a beautiful turbo kit, and one from M2 Performance is expected soon, it is taking forever though. There is also a small company called Fast Import Cars that is going to realease one soon. Try searching around before asking next time. This has been discussed to death. Others might have gotten pissed at you for not searching first.

actually check www.FMprotege.com for all the details on the Protege turbo kit...

Alot of people knock the Tripoint based on the Aerodyne Turbocharger - they shouldn't, its a fine turbo. I would have bought that kit had I not found the BEGI Kit for such a bargain ($2900). I believe the first ten kits that sold for that price are gone.

The Tripoint kit has an awesome intercooler though.

LinuxRacer: So that's where one of Corky's "last two kits" went, lol. He kept telling me to get the money ready. One week he had five and the next week he had two left - I was never so quick to apply for a credit card in my entire life!

Enjoy the kit. I know I will enjoy mine.
