The shocks are probably Meister R. Aren't cheap, good setup for Mx5. Supercharger kit could be Jackson Racing or Sebring. Most likely will be Sebring, judging by the pulley. Has older style outlet manifold, so probably be late 90's or early 00's kit. Intercooler is an extra. Original setup uses piggybacks with oem ecu. If so, they're usually kept in glove box. If not it's an aftermarket ecu. All in you'd be looking at €200-250 for intercooler, €1500-2000 for charger kit, if it's an aftermarket ecu it could be €200- 600 depending on what's in it. Shocks if meister are €900 new.

Also, if youre arsed, you could make up a turbo kit for cheaper by buying bits from here and there and make more power. More hassle than just buying that SC kit though. FYI.

The kit uses a relocated pre supercharger tb and a dummy one in the old place. Also, I don't think he's looking for a FI build project.

I wonder how difficult it would be to for this to a mk2 :wink:
It could be next winter's project :D
Am I right in saying that it might only be a bracket or two and maybe the dummy throttle body ?
And Deivis , please stop telling Robert all the prices, but if you insist , make them small .....I'm dying here :mrgreen:
Only kidding deivis we must meet up soon for a chat .

I know, the costs are mad but the fun you get I think is worth! Kits are same for mk1 and mk2. The only difference between 1.6 and 1.8 is the charger mounting bracket. Dummy throttle body could be different 1.6 and 1.8 think too. Should definitely catch up same time, Brian!.. So,.. You think there's a project coming up..? :)
