Default Dntlift's Spurr of the moment, what have I blown money on this time... thread!

This is mainly just filler for the time being.

Basically, I have a red 93 miata with a few supporting mods done to it. Various things have come and go. This thread is going to be used to document any changes. For those of you who are interested, a little history (probably not many of you, lol) I first got the car with a mp45 jackson racing blower, Kyb Agx with GC springs and a Bossfrog rollbar. I eventually got tired of it and decided that a turbo was the way to go, I ended up stumbling upon a GReddy. Take this as a lesson, those of you who are looking into boosting your car. Dont do what I did, lol. Always get engine management before boostss. I did this the other way around. The last few years have been a mix of enjoying the car, fixing the always something wrong with it turbo. (usually cracked dp) and a few autox here and there.

Currently the car is n/a running a literally just installed ms3x. literally as in, maybe 6 hours ago. And I have taken the car to a few hpde style events. I have determined that track days are where I want to be, and the car from now on will begin to reflect that, while still being a DD car.

Pics of the car in various stages of my ownership.
Also some pics of the upcoming motor build
