Back burner. Just bought a house, Closing is not till July 31st, all my future projects as of right now are just chillen and awaiting their migration to my new and much improved garage.

Where I will be even able to do car painting and serious body work ...

For now I'm really getting into AutoX with the Miata, doing my first competition Sunday July 22nd kinda excited ..

That engine bay fits a V8 a lot easier then a 240 engine bay believe it or not.

Who said I'm swapping a V8 in there anyways, you guys need to think outside the box.

I was going more for the V10 F1 Series Engine.

Jeez get with the times.

Maybe I missed this part of the thread, but why don't you have the SC blow through the turbo, and then have a simple valve that bypasses the SC when the turbo spools up. This would also allow you to run a SC with a clutch and turn it off when the turbo spools up, eliminating the power loss associated with running the SC at high air flow levels.
