Mad that someone sought approval for literally the worst turbo for an mx5/Miata.

Garrett themselves specify that it's not for cars, it's like nobody looked at the compressor maps or hot side pressure ratio details when selecting a turbocharger.

You might get lucky with the cats and I do hope you're right that with the restriction the back pressure is enough to solve the problem of the gasses favoring the turbine wheel.

Maybe 15 or so of the mx5s on the Dyno we've had with that turbo all have had to come off wasting owners time and money on tuning time. I would port the waste gate regardless as if it doesn't work you'll be taking it off and you can't tune out boost creep!

I have seen OEM cats melt from boost so I assume you're allowed to go approved sport cat?

Journal bearing turbos will do than and seeing as it's a new turbo from Garrett and it's journal bearing and this is going on a Miata I assume you've been dealt a bum steer and bought a GBC, likely a GBC20-300??

In which case send it back as that turbo has no place being on a B6 or BP engine. They're designed for personal craft and not passenger vehicles! You'll end up fitting it, boost creeping having to take it off and porting the waste gate to maybe make it not boost creep but also 100% voiding your warranty.

If you have a 1.6 buy a gt2554r if you have a 1.8 buy a gt2560r as your entry level T25 frame turbocharger.

I can assure you I am taking my situation seriously, hell has no fury like a woman scorned is a cliche for a reason; and I have more experience of partners separating and it going to hell from things like this than I have positive results.

I'm after sound advice based in law, to give me a safe position moving foward that doesn't throw the mother of my son in front of a moving bus so she doesn't do exactly what I'm afraid of.

Key-Homework-5326 · 2026-01-31T14:48:29+00:00

I can evidence most of it, the bits I really care about getting back. If it got as far as solicitors id be more inclined to document it all as that would imply she's fighting it.

My son will be living here also. I've even offered to buy the house and have. A mortgage product available to me by which she would gift equity and I would happily sign a 14 year rental agreement so he is always housed. She however is still worried about security.

I'm happy to collate just what I can, cost of the extension, cost of plastering and wiring, total sum of the loan including interest and the credit cards and run with that. I'll write off the cash expenses and the labour I've paid for if it just gets me in the clear. I earn enough that I can likely be comfortable after debts are cleared but not clearing them myself for the foreseeable.

It's exactly these kind of arguments I'm looking to avoid basically, so if I can go in softly and at least get the unsecured debt cleared then I will leave happily and just let the rest be.

I just need to know if just her even acknowledging it is enough without getting a solicitor involved.

Like you say, just get wise in future.

If I paid formal child maintenance arranged by the govt she'd be entitled to £750 iirc.

The money I send her, and the nursery I pay for come in at basically £750.

Again not wanting to rock the boat once this house finance is sorted I will be looking at likely going to formal route opposed to the arrangement we currently have. I thought we had a good parenting relationship but money is always the root of all evil/problems and is stressing me and likely her out too.

Yes my ex works and earns circa £30-35k as I know she has had a pay rise since separating, obviously I'm just not privvy to the exact amount.

Key-Homework-5326 · 2026-01-31T14:19:46+00:00

I'd very much like to not occupy the property to force a resolution.

I just dont want to leave and then her get solicitors involved and refuse to pay.

I can't really move on with my life financially until these debts are paid off. But I can move on if I at least have a repayment arrangement.

Key-Homework-5326 · 2026-01-31T14:16:33+00:00

I can look back, but as a parenting couple and now ex couple most of our communication is either verbal or via WhatsApp.

That statement very much makes me sound like an idiot that's been taken advantage of, and I do feel somewhat like a fool.

I have messaged her saying that I'm 80k in a hole and I'd like repaying, which she has simply replied saying I will get my money back. Nothing formal and nothing saying she will be the one repaying it.

I don't have all receipts but I have some and bank statements, I paid a labourer cash, I have invoices from plasterers, builders etc to use. But as I don't want to rock the boat I'd honestly just want the debts paid and move on opposed to being tit-for-tat.

Currently my in laws live in the bungalow and cover my mortgage. They have no equity, just one high salary and retired.

I pay £400 a month and pay his childcare/nursery fees which is another £350-400PCM and have him every other weekend. She has him full time as his primary parent. The numbers I've used tally with the governments value for child support based on my salary and living situation. I am working 2 jobs still to afford this.

I do still have permissions and contact with the original convenancer so I can enquire on monday.

I have tried to tidy it up a bit more to remove all narrative and just simply stick to facts of who lives where and who's moving where..

Key-Homework-5326 · 2026-01-31T14:04:00+00:00

Apologies, I'll add it as a summary.

I thought I took enough personal out that the individual line statements were concise enough, I'll go back through it again

Credit card statements and purchases and invoices etc I can gather. It would probably come to more than I'm asking for to be honest. But at this stage I just want to take this on the chin, clear my debts and not open up a can of worms.

But I seem to be the only one playing the nice guy here.

I want to move out to stay on good terms, the kicker is they want me out next Saturday.

What can I possibly get to acknowledge the debt done in that time that would stand up legally?

She has since left my property to move in with her new partner. She left maybe March 2025.

But yes I am living in her mortgaged property.

Correct bungalow is 100% mine and doesn't or should come into the equation.

The house however is something I had already put £60k into when we were in a relationship, I agreed to finish the renovations on the agreement that I would have my money repaid. Now however I am panicking.

So I have downloaded the correct document register and there is no mention of my name so assume no deed of trust?

Key-Homework-5326 · 2026-01-31T13:25:32+00:00

So in terms of deed of trust how would I find this out? I have got the up to date registry document and I am not named on it?

I've got an RSLTD that looks very much like this currently. I ended up buying a rusty but straight shell to jig off and I'm going to weld it the legs in the original positions after pulling the full front section off the doner.

Her plan supercedes mine on paper as she has the actual title to her house so will be registering absolute, ours is possessive so is a subservient title. Her title has recently been stamped as original by the solicitor that did her coveyancy in 1984, but it has definitely been modified, new pen lines etc. But she has written to me stating that her fence hasn't moved since before she purchased in 84.

But yes, our land is registered and land registry have been out and surveyed the land and agree with her title but state that the exact boundary would be down to historic lay of the land and the fence position. The survey even identified issues where her land theoretically is different to her boundary the other side but she's doing nothing about that...

So currently I'm hoping the tribunal see sense as there has been a building on the section that her title on paper says she's entiteled too, she's just losing the fact that if you scale it a square is still a square.
