Project update... A/C System - Condenser and lines flushed, created dryer bracket and bend/tweaking some lines around the turbo intake. Drier bottle was no longer available so those lines had to be made with the bracket to adopt a generic one for the MANA system.
Awesome build so far. How did those Speedhut guages fit with the Carbon Miata piece. Did you have to modify it to fit the Speedhut chrome rings? Pictures would be great if you have any. Keep up the good work.
hell yeah. very similar to what I just went through on my car. I'm curious how you will fair when it comes to the injector staging issue that the haltech's have. we are still trying to solve the issue on my car once and for all.
When I first got the car I did not give the tan interior a second thought but the more I saw the timeless look of all black the more I decided to source some black oem pieces.
Jim sold me some nice carpet and side panels to get the conversion rolling.

The Carbon Miata pieces seem to be a complete pain to work with. I will let Andrew comment on anything else as he is the one messing with it.

Mind elaborating? Also on the hunt for some remote tune help to get it rolling - Anyone?

Most pieces under the hood are now ready to go. Besides fluids and final checks it should be good to start soon...pics below of some “adjustments” needed of the oem hood to fit the Pettit intercooler.
but first... engine **** for your viewing pleasure.
Next onto the catch can...Custom piece made by AZ to fit the OEM oil filler neck while the other line routes to the Intake. Realize this Can is a little small for an FD, if its a problem there is plenty of room under to expand the tank.
Mine is installed the other way.... maybe that could be the issue?
I was a little worried about using that bulkhead connector too, so far no leaks or seepage and it been about 3 months installed.
Good luck man, love this build very clean!!!

Man the painted bins and headliner came out great! I'd like to know what, if any, prep you did on that and how you went about the painting. I've got like 80% of the black interior in mine and am only missing the really hard to find bits, which I would most definitely be ok painting if I could get a finish like yours!
Video attached showing the oil pressure sensor integration with the Haltech Elite. Compensated for 0.1V offset between readings by adjusting the calibration curve.
