> At least one set of heat shields for the turbo.
Let me know. I'm ready to order a new set if you dont have spares.

 
I'll have at least one spare set, but I'm not sure what shape the used ones will be in.  I'm planning to use the new ones that I ordered, but if I have to cut them up to make them fit,  I might start with the used ones.  I won't really know what they look like until they get here, since Todd's pics are of the earlier version.  I'm sure it's pretty similar though.

Mine arrived today. What about the rpm output from the EC2? I'm sure I remember Tracy saying I could use this to drive a standard rpm gauge. Will it drive the TT?
 
The EC-2 tach output has 12 pulses per revolution, and won't directly work with any normal tach.  Todd has made a divider to bring the pulse rate down to normal, and it sounds like it's working well.  The TT that you have expects 1 pulse per rev, so if you don't mind dividing the rpm reading by 12...  :-)

I'm wondering why you both went with these. I have stock 550's from Bruce T for both primary and secondaries. My primaries are in the stock holes on the engine, and the secondaries will have their own rail on the outside two runners. Is this where you put you're.
 
I have a TWM throttle body, which has two injector holes.  The stock Mazda injectors don't fit the TWM holes, or we wouldn't be having this conversation :-)

If I ever find out what's really wrong, I'm charging a fee for the answer :-)
