The Miata instructions are online on the Flyin' Miata site - the System 4.2 is the closest to the Protegé system, but the oil return is different along with a few other details. The Protege is an easier install - this is basically to give you an idea of what the instructions are like.

The first turbo install I did was at home with a couple of friends helping out. No exotic tools were required.

What kind of chassis cutting is required with the kit, any?
Thanks.

No plans for the 1.6, sorry. Grab a 323 GTX manifold for that.
No chassis cutting is required - yikes! There's some trimming of the nose piece, but it's non-structrural plastic.

It should work fine on an auto tranny car unless there's something really unusual about the autos. The stock exhaust routing is maintained from the first cat on, staying away from the gearbox. There may be some slight differences in how the oil supply is obtained, but that's all I can think of.
