Some of things done include sport brakes, cops, torsen, suspension/sways, new motor. I'm acutally not turbo yet, but I'm REALLY close. Just currently working on making my manifold and downpipe/rest of exhaust. I'm trying to do 3" all the way back

My turbo setup is:
disco potato w/.86 hotside
Custom tubular manifold, custom downpipe in progress
ZT-2 wideband
parallel MS2 in progress
Godspeed intercooler
Custom intercooler piping
Cops
Act extreme pp with street disc
Shooting for a "safe" 220ish hp at 8-9 psi

I need to buy my ms2 because my ms1 has an issue that I'm too lazy to track down and was going to upgrade anyways, I need to make all my exhaust stuff which I can do after I have a few days off of work and school. Everything else I have

Godly turbo is godly.

You are not doing that turbo justice below 12psi...15psi is really sweet. This turbo really tells you when you're at max efficiency for some reason. I don't know if every turbo is like that, but when you bump up to 15psi you get that "efficiency" feeling. I run mine at 12psi, it's fast enough.

Good looking Miata, but I really like your Bronco! Those rusted away 20 years ago up here. I never see clean Bronco's or Scouts anymore.

Thanks, the bronco is pretty done up. It's a 68 with detroits front and rear, bigger axles, atlas II transfer case, 351w gm tbi injection, 37's on champion beadlocks. Lots of custom work. Its a blast but so expensive to keep driving.

I plan to build a motor up after I get the current motor boosted because I think I'll have an easier time deciding on exactly what I want and how much power I really need. I'm afraid of buttf*^&ing a rod at anything after 12psi on my setup. Of course its all speculation but I would guess 12 psi would be around 250ish and then I hit the go big or go home wall lol
