Ahhhhh....it's not staying NA as I'm chasing plenty of punch out of corners....but it won't be turbocharged either....I'm supercharging it...A2W intercooled Eaton M90 will be the final setup. I'm not at all interested in top end hp. However prior to getting this setup designed I'll be running a Blitz non-intercooled kit to get the car on the track sooner than later.

There have been a few fitting dramas so far....but there has also been some pleasant surprises :wink: . I'm sure there will be more to come.

Cheers,
Danny

Exactly! I'm committed to making my dreams a reality, rather than waiting for someone else (namely Mazda) to bring them to fruition. :P

Looking at your NA build and now this - Geez you've got some ability!

My hats off to what looks like a very clean build up!
When results speak for themselves - don't interrupt.
