A Very Fabulous Miata

I hit your mom with a ******* hammer last night.
On the dyno it might look like its every bit of an efr. But coincidentally I got this email yesterday from someone I let drive my car "Why does your car have better throttle response than Nieman's car? He was asking me about it the other day because I couldn't stop raving about driving your car
Yours felt like nice V8." The Nieman referred to has a GTX2860R I believe, but on an FM manifold and stroker.

Just making sure i understood your post.

It's just a dick measuring contest either way until someone does a back-to-back comparo, and the different form factors all but rules that out unless someone wants to build 2 complete setups to bring to the dyno. Obviously it's not apples-to-apples with Soviet/99mx5 as this one has some headwork done, but you can't argue with 21psi@3500rpm.

Run more timing when the torque starts dropping off and I bet you could flatten it out.
And I hit 25 psi @ 3500 rpm on gas

Well, damn. This is amazing. Impressive gtx dyno. Also, Vlad - I don't think savington tuned this thing.
OP: We need some videos of this thing (preferably not drifting, so we can see it's performance), NAO!

Its tuned. Just leave it.
LOL. guys increasing timing up top to gain like 20hp to flatten the curve....
If your driving the Miata that hard, there are more problems than the little power up top.

The tuner did crank the timing for the hell of it, he hit 420hp for one pull...we did a lot of laughing.
I'll get some non drifting videos for you guys, and I hope to see a few of you at the Laguna seca miata event. I'll probably need to put a muffler on it, this thing is soooo loud.
