BEGi's Miata Turbo Systems vs. Others Available

Of all the turbo systems available today, we think the BEGi Turbo Systems are superior and here is why.

We have made a multitude of power enhancing and durability improvements to the 1.6L, 1.8L and '99-'04 turbo systems. These kits has been designed by the turbo charging expert, Corky Bell, who has a designed over 100 turbo kits, of which have been featured on over 130 magazine articles and 16 front covers. We are the oldest Turbo Kit maker in the USA, and we were one of the first with a turbo kit for the Miata. We have been working on Miatas for over 16 years and have built more Miata turbo systems than all other makers combined. We have designed, built, and tooled up these new systems with a passion and intensity that borders on insanity. We have brought the best of engineering procedures, materials, and processes to produce drive ability, economy and phenomenal performance.

We also promise to continually improve products for better quality and/or easier installation.  There is not one tube that will fit every year car. Each intercooler or compressor tube is made to fit that year car, that specific turbo, with those specific accessories. Every downpipe is different. Some people might call it a little much, we call it easier to install. As the manufacturer, we have the ability to makeit fit your car. Not make your car fit the part.

The New Systems features improvements you will not find with any other turbo system available to make the most efficient system possible.
  • Cool Air System - Air Scooper, Radiator Cover, and the Cool Air Box. Overheat with a turbo system is a problem of the past. Special attention has been paid to the management and routing of cooler air. The Cool Air Box isolates intake air from the heat radiating off of the engine. The Air Scooper flows air past the intercooler directly into the radiator. The Radiator Cover prevents the air from escaping out the top, basically forcing the air from the scooper to flow thru the radiator. Independent tests have confirmed that the Air Scooper can reduce coolant temps at least 14 deg. C.
    • Power
      • Air Inlet Temperature is maintained within 6 deg. of Ambient
    • Durability
      • Lower temperatures results in less wear and longer life of parts
      • TIG Welded Aluminum construction
  • Downpipe - Stainless Steel, wastegate gases separated for over 21" before merging with turbine gas flow.
    • Power
      • Straightest exhaust gas path
      • Wastegate Vent Tube allows for more low end torque
    • Durability -
      • Stainless Steel or Mild Steel
      • TIG Welded Construction
      • Precision Laser Cut Flanges
      • Flex Joint
      • Two O2 Bungs standard
  • Intercooler
    • Power
      • Longest tube, highest efficiency design of today
      • Largest internal flow area
      • Baffled inlet for more equal flow distribution
      •  Three sizes to choose from, compatible with air conditioning in all year cars.
    • Durability
      • The most solid mounting features
      • Artistically welded by the TIG method
  • Exhaust Manifold
    • Power
      • The Unique progressive divided pulses design
      • Cast Iron, Precision Machined, Ceramic Coated
      • S4 Manifold
    • Durability
      • Stainless Steel construction
      • Heliarc weld process
  • Turbochargers
    • Power
      • GT2554, GT2560, GT2860RS, GT3071, GT3076, T03/T04 Hybrids. Choice of power ranges from 170 to 220 rwhp to 400+ rwhp.
    • Durability
      • Water Cooler
      • Ball Bearing
      • Oil Lubricated
      • Garrett Family of Turbochargers
  • Compressor Inlet
    • Power
      • Easy access well of atmospheric air stored at the compressor inlet requiring less air charge acceleration
    • Durability
      • TIG Welded and Powdercoated Steel
  • Tube Assemblies
    • Power
      • Air tubes that assist the intercooler in removing the air charge heat. Roughly 6% off heat is removed by the tubes alone.
      • Differences if 20 degrees F from the turbo to the intercooler can be attributed to mild steel tubes giving off heat. Therefore, allowing the intercooler to work more efficiently than ever
    • Durability
      • TIG Welded and Powdercoated Steel
  • Oil and Water Lines
    • Durability
      • Stainless Steel Braid protected fluid lines organized and protected thru the Distribution Block
      • More heat tolerant and longer lasting
  • Bypass Valve
    • Cosmetic
      • A quiet vent of bypasses charge to the compressor inlet
      • No obnoxious noises or behaviors
  • Air Filtration
    • Power
      • Virtual zero pressure loss gauze element air filters
    • Durability
      • Low flow loss reduces heat in the air charge
  • Air Inlet Heatshield
    • Power
      • A radiation shield to protect the compressor inlet
    • Durability
      • Lower temperatures results in less wear and longer life of parts
      • TIG Welded Aluminum construction
  • Retention Clamps
    • Durability
      • The T-Bolt (or cross bolt) clamp is the strongest clamp available today
** And these are ALL Standard Features **

Many of the engineering features we have created in these systems have and will find their way into the "kit maker" industry standards. This is clearly all part of the fun.
