Last weekend was the end of my 6 week install of a turbo kit onto my ancient miata. It's a pretty tense moment to turn that key for the first time after having rerouted coolant, drilled holes in the oil system, cut and rewired fuel injectors, replaced the computer entirely, and flashed in mystery software to control it all.

I'm a pessimist, and this is the kind of situation where that really pays off--- To my shock and school-girl-like jumping-up-and-down-clapping-hands glee, it started up and ran, first try. I guess I have good beginner's luck!

Get your rides now, before it explodes.

(The noise this thing now makes is ridiculously satisfying. I actually cackle maniacally every time I press on the accelerator--- which is all the time. I just can't help it.)
