Hi people I'm feeling spontaneous ,I've been thinking about going the turbo route on my mac#1 but i think it will stress the bike engine to much in a car , so I've always wanted to go back to my jap routes with a 200sx sr20det turbo engine as i love them , or do i turbo the mx5 lump ??
so I've seen this one eBayhttp://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2014-WEST ... Ciid%253A1

so plan to fix it and drop a new lump in then sell my car. what you think ??

The link isn’t working Jay. One of my mates fitted one to an mgb roadster, was in a light state of tune went well until someone t-boned it. A bit of a pain to wire in the standard ECU as signal wires can’t be cut apparently.

Why would you do it then sell it though?

I guess it’s the one with the front wheel ripped off which doesn’t look too bad. Why not go for it, if you’ve got the space and it gets you what you want at the price you want to pay

Love the way they've blanked out the registration plate but then in one of the last pictures the front plate is laying on the floor in the photo :lol:

Jay, I'm confused, are you saying sell the mac1 or this one after you've done it up?
