*most things except silver :grin:

Back on the hunt for one of these; will consider most things between rolling project and garage queen :)

Bump

Would you be able to post the eibach springs or would you need a swap?

Thanks, wasn't sure if he had a business page or something I could head to.

I'm looking at a 1.7 this week that has a leather interior. Am I right in thinking that only specials had this as an option so it must have been retrofitted? It's steel blue so, as far as I know, won't be a special? The car itself looks very clean but the MOT history is ringing a few alarm...

That ebay seller are listing the whole Hoffman system as £740! Presumably that should be £74? Does anyone know what difference the centre pipe makes when mounted to a standard backbox?

Does anyone know if PumaNoob is still around? I PM'd him a while back but it hasn't been read so far as I can tell.

This is going to be very cool when it's finished, huge credit to you for taking it on.

Vactan is the product of choice over at the RX8 OC, seems very reasonable. I haven't used it myself I must add. https://www.rx8ownersclub.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=53657

It'll be interesting to see how you get it all mounted. I've had a couple of MX5s, including a turbo conversion, and a few guys over there run superchargers. There was quite a few went down the cooper s m45 route a while back with people selling mounting kits etc. Thought of selling a kit if...

What Mercedes is the charger from, SLK?

It certainly looks an interesting project, you're right. Can I check I've understood correctly though, up to 6/7psi there's no need for any ECU changes or to the fuelling at all, not even a rising regulator/VMU type device? What about the timing, is that stock or retarded a little?

I know this is an old thread now but I've just read it start to finish. I've been on the fence between a 1.7 Puma or another MX5. I was leaning towards the MX5 as they're so easy to add boost (I've had two, one turbo, one n/a) but SWMBO wants another Puma. The idea of a boosted Puma is now very...

That answers my question perfectly, too much grief. Thanks.

This might be a really dumb question but how much grief is it to retrofit a/c to a car without it?

Thanks for the info. I've dug through your posts, lovely car but more work than I'm looking to take on, especially as you're 3.5 hours away.

That could be interesting, where in SW Scotland?

I've lurked here a while but now I'm looking to buy another Puma I'm hoping that someone will have a decent 1.7 for sale. I'm happy to travel to an extent but the closer the better. I'm looking for something in good condition and any colour but silver. Anyone selling?

Is this still around?
