I haven't updated this in such a long time, I apologize..

The Ghost has been a blast to drive and I love my car.

Things have been ok so far... besides replacing my rear main seal, and rack issues.

Everything is carefully being examined and executed @eurotivas garage, a long with a newer style intake for FM6! And maybe a few more changes from last year


FL crew has to hold it down once again with 5 awards being taken hom last year

Mike and Greg have always said..don't just make it work...make it better.

how much did you spend for the swap and everything?

[bravekozak]

Does that Festiva have factory tinted glass all around?

[M3NTAL]

Factory tint no, it's 5% all around and the windshield is 30% I
Think

Spent around 4-5k total with paint, engine,rebuild, buying an entire Capri etc.

The grey ghost is boosting again! This time with a couple of unconventional new parts.

Not happy with the old factory over the valve cover b6t Intake manny, we
Decided it was time for something different and boy is it different now!*








We started with a 90-93 Miata intake, and essentially the plan was to make it work in factory form (yeah right like that was gonna work!) we quickly found out that with the strut tower there and the AC lines that this was going to be challenging.*






But no challenge is too great for EurOtivA and the Central Florida Crew!
Why make things difficult? (kinda a oxymoron here) Why not chop the ends off the miata and flip the throttle body to point toward the driver side?*
So that's exactly what we did!













Changed my clutch to a ACT 6 Puck Sprung with heavy duty pressure plate! While the motor is out why not right not??No more F1 EBay for me!






With the turbo being less than an inch away from the AC compressor and condenser the only option the fort pierce crew was left with was a 45 degree coupler and a J pipe from a sink along with a universal radiator hose that came under the sway bar.

So to make the AC components happy, and make the lower radiator hose happy and not look retarded it was time for REAR TURBO!!!!

Originally the fort pierce crew had used a 45 degree coupler and a*J pipe from a sink along with a universal radiator hose that came under the sway bar. Well when euro saw that he said there's no way that's leaving my garage like that! He actually said that to a bunch of stuff ! Haha !!

The revision? B3 water outlet On a b6T? And a B6D exhaust manifold...Could that work? Of course it can central Florida crew has turbo's on the back of their cars beating motorcycles in Mexico highway racing!!! Anything is possible !!!!!!





Happy Happy Cold AC








Wire tucking..



Euro and Flyin4Stroke thinking.........and they said it wouldnt work...lol* But why? Because racecar!


There's a lot of things I'm missing in what has been done but you can see it in person at FM6 or the yearly Florida meet!*

Special thanks to Greg EurOtivA aka Toretto, Mike Flyin4stroke, RJ Skimsucka, and Dan the man!*

Beutiful car man, just looking at the pics its awesome, then you explain it and you can see all the love that's been put in it.

Does the intake pipe come up from the front/driver side of the tranny, or is the intercooler still hooked up in the front?

Love what you guys are comming up with, keep it up I need more ideas to steal!

Thanks man theres a ton of 4am night into this car to get it to where its at today, the intake pipe goes down in front of the trans then back like this






no need for an intercooler with a rear turbo!

the best part is....and you dont even know how awesome it is, but the hotter the car gets the faster the spool and it feels like it gets faster. I swear it.

[Flyin4stroke]
