Default 94 Miata .. Finally started the car. DIY Turbo setup.

I'm not done.. maybe 70% there. Well i've been sititng here eager to finish my baby and I got her on the other day so I decided to do a photoshoot. The car hasn't been washed/dusted/cleaned for over 8 months so its dirty as expletive.

I got the wheels at a great price, and they are the size I was looking for. I couldn't careless if they are knock off TRD wheels. Manifold/downpipe is not going to be cooking the brake MC as I still need to get a turbo blanket and heat wrap the dp. The tires came with the wheels.. I am going to be slapping on Kumho V710's 225/50ZR15's. And the lip is on there because this car is built with track in mind.. I'm not going to spend $300 on a lip when I could put that money towards an RX7 LSD or roll bar.
