3D printed parts

Charge pipe section prototype. Only a couple minor tweaks and it'll go on to full time use and testing.

Checking in... Just got a 2013 SHO, been printing and designing Miata parts for years now, also have a scanner. hopefully add to the collection of scanned templates.

Sorry, it wasn't my intent to try and take advantage of anyone I was just curious.

If files won't be made available will it be available for purchase somewhere? I know it was mentioned and saw someone had bought it, I was just interested in getting my hands on one

Just saw this bud, Ill slap one together in a bit for you, just tell me the gauge size and its an easy job. I dont charge for silly STL files like that. Its silly to try imo.

If you're offering! I need them in 52mm pods, I started working on a design around the time I made that post but never got around to finishing it.

Love first time posters looking to take advantage of the hard work or others. I am not the OP, however the answer is no. @Junkyard_Mad-Scientist

Doesn't bother me. I posted all my stuff for free on thingiverse. No posting required.

This looks nifty. I wonder if you could take that spot where the noisemaker was and put a boost gauge port... I might be looking at replacing my pipes.


I love how people come in here, hijack your thread, and then want your many hours of researcch, design, testing, and artistic creation for free.

I don’t mean to come across that way. I was only asking if the STL files might be shared, not expecting anything, I understand the time and effort involved and I didn't think it was an outrageous question.

I'm not against purchasing something if It's worth the value but I'm not in a position right now to afford a $100 3d printed gauge cluster. What I can afford is a (reasonably priced) STL file and print it myself, because I have a printer and materials.

I thought about adding a boost port but during initial testing the readings were way off (1psi at idle, 4psi at wot) so not sure if I did something wrong but I moved it to the vac line and everything read correctly. That said I also made a tee to tap the hard plastic vac line that runs across the firewall.

As for hijacking, I wouldn't even call it that, some ask but honestly it's such an old thread and the title is 3d printed parts. It's not mine and mine alone so all are welcome to share and ask questions, just because im the OP doesn't mean it's not an open discussion. That said I'm not one to share my files either, many of my designs have hours if not days of development. Not just in design but in integrity, what thresholds work with what material, etc. I've invested beyond a hobby level to give away that kind of time or risk the design being replicated and sold.

I do cut breaks for forum members, since day 1 it's been 20% off any listed price, and after 2 years I usually some misfits I can let go cheap because I can't advertise them for one reason or another. I am still working on a few new designs for our platform so feel free to message me with ideas or if you're after something on a budget, I might be able to help.
