well that all depends how much experience you have had working on cars..

if you regularly service your own car and know how to spin a spanner, its not overly difficult..

If you have never changed a spark plug, it could well be a nightmare..

Highflow turbos where good 10 years ago because everything was a lot more expensive so it was a cheap option snd fairly effective in saying that they are now out done by cheaper turbos. The td06 is a perfect turbo for a 20 iv used one myself and after using both turbos you have listed the td06 is much better

The age, who made the highflow and what specs it has been highflowed to will mean more than generically terming highflows to be inferior/obsolete compared to cheaper turbos. Only difference between a new turbo and a high flow = retaining factory housings of the existing turbo. If you machine the housings to suit the wheels and don't run into any flow restrictions, there's no reason you can't make all the power of the new turbo. Hence my highflow SS1PU makes all the power it's supposed to in ATR43 guise. The cheap turbos have come a long way, but so have highflows.

I understand they have developed over the years but I'm my experience with them I won't use them again iv used both a 25 highflow and a td06 and I would much rather a td06. To the op the 20 setup will work if you use a rb20 tps and buy a td06h-20g 10cm or td06sl2-20g 10cm. I used the td06h 8cm on a rb20 and it made a very fast car and fun to drive. All that really needs deciding on is if you want internal gate or external gate

      I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.

      Wonder what the cause is, but here's hoping it's nothing too serious.

      People don't always want builds that are overly expensive, or have engineering/registration/insurance issues and head aches that come with them Whilst big dollar builds, and complicated stuff is interesting to watch, there is only a tiny % of people who would actually use this information, or have the spare finances to drop on said builds, whereas the buy a cheap(ish) cool car, and make it better, with a average budget, that the average Joe or Jane could achieve will always be a winner in my opinion

      Bit of a thread revival, you mentioned wanting a bit more top end before, do you regret not going with the 1.01?

      It's kind of interesting - They definitely do builds that split the difference between what they like and what will generate views and engagement. The NC Platform always surprises everyone in a good way, in an uncomfortably good way some may say. They could throw a LS in there and arguably have the best (and best performing) car of the entire stable. But that isn't necessarily what draws views, because people viewing don't want to accept the vegetables of a LS NC MX5 being a superior vehicle in every way (including fun) than a RB26 240Z. This is also why there's not a lot of content about the GR Yaris (on the web in general). They're too good, yet 'only a Yaris' The community doesn't want certain cars to be as good as they are - to beat their hero cars, and I believe the NC MX5 is absolutely one of those cars.
