It looks like a freakin Miata cluster?

Looks like a nice setup you got going there. How do the welds on that mani look?

What radiator/cross member combo are you using? I'm just curious because I'm about ready to start hacking on my car to clear some room up for the turbo.

im using the eg radiator, and im going to make traction bars for it so i dont have to worry so much about my down pipe clearance.
