Yeah. That would be better, but... I don't have my pump and manifold up here at college. So I'm looking for a cheap fix till this summer. And if it works well I won't fix what's not broke. Going to look for the pc7 stuff and if I don't find any, I'm JB welding it.

JB weld can fix anything....except cracked timing covers on fail caviler z24's.
How does one crack a timing cover. Was it the 2.4?

Nice interheater. Gotta keep those IAT's high you know. Dangerous horsepower is dangerous. :6

Agreed. It's for stealth, not performance. What could possibly feel worse than getting your ass handed to you by a seemingly stock miata?

AIT's are 5-10*F hotter than ambient in cruise, rising 2-6*F in full boost. With A/C on, add 30*F. I ran a mustang GT a few days ago with the A/C on, shifting at 5K. Still waxed his ass and stayed cool doing it.

Lowes don't have the PC7 stuff. Didn't check wally world.

I JB welded it a little while ago. Gonna let it setup and tomorrow I'll sand and add some more cause a lot of it dripped off. Hope this works. :8 Checked wal-mart and they didn't have the PC7 stuff either. JB's never let me down, so I have faith.
