The turbo on my older, BEGI miata 1.8 turbo kit appears to have given up the ghost. I basically need a T25 flanged, 5 bolt on the exhaust side, 2.5in inlet, .60 A/R, M24, etc. I think a CA18 or SR20 is pretty similar, but I'd like something I can just drop in without having to screw with the IC piping. Located in Orlando area.
Is it the funky Mitsubishi T25 or the Nissan T25? Makes a big difference.
And I'll add that the only reason I ask is the fact that I ask is that if my plans play out the way I'm hoping them to I'll be looking for a Mitsubishi T25 in less than a month.

I have a couple off DSMs if that works for you. I bought them years ago to twin turbo the XJ-R. One bigger turbo was much easier!
I'll sell em cheap if you want them both
Why not do a rebuild? Or did it die such a horrible death that it can't be rebuilt?

Shoot me a pm or email @ google mail if Sil80 isn't interested in them with what you want for one or both of them.

To be perfectly honest, I'm not sure my turbo is done. Dropped the car off with a megasquirt tuner, and now the car is only making 3-4psi. I had only driven the car previously out of boost with band-aids, so I'm not sure that it has ever made more than 3-4 psi. With the wastegate wired shut, it still only makes 3-4psi, and no leaks were found with a leak test. Here is what I'd be trying to match up:

Looks like a t25 from a sr20det. Probably blew the seals out from passing 15psi.
I'm pretty sure the inlet/outlet on the compressor housing are flanged on an SR T25.

What would you suggest? I'd love to find out that I don't need a turbo.

Are they? Its been awhile since I dabbled with those.
It always could be an aftermarket gt2560 or gt2860.
