This one ?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Mazda-MX5-C...9949fa34&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

I have the ECU Megasquirt PnP and i'm having trouble finding someone to tune it, but the price is very good the only issue is the actual turbo of which there is no information. I rang the owner James to ask him what turbo it was and he didnt know ?? said "i think it says AT3 on or something like that" of which means nothing to me    I will ask around for you.

lookin at the flange n waste gate on the turbo looks like a subaru one, same as mine, but the compressor looks a little different, tdo4l or similar,

bit of an unknown in terms of turbo condition and spec

external wastegate is a nice addition if you wanted to run big power through

its a fair price,

mspnp - £500
intercooler - £150
pipework and turbo £300
exhaust £200

but on top of that lot you'll need

wideband O2 sensor for safety (tuning if wanting do do yourself)
bigger injectors
ECU mapping

not sure the seller is particularly read up on it, as he mentions leaning out the mix at high revs....all thats gonna do is cause you to overheat and blow up

Yeah having spoke to the guy he dfinitely knows nothing about engines etc as i managed to impress him with my endless knowledge  
He said the set up was imported from USA. i asked if it was a Garrett and he said no its definitely not or he would have said, ia sked if it was a chinese one and he said no its American, but it could be just imported from USA. I don't think its a chinese one though. I did ask him to have another look on the the actual casing and see if there were any words letters numbers etc and put them on his ad if there were. Its a good buy if the turbo is ok.
