I said 400whp, you posted 380whp. I never doubted ya for a minute! Looks like dyno reads 20whp low to me....

Congrats! I'd be curious to see sparkplugs and timing table for the 380whp pull, and boost level run.

Also, are you going to drive it at 380whp, or turn it down?

I'm going to put some new spark plugs in, and go do some pulls. I have no doubt these current plugs have some signs of det on them. I caught it a few times. 2 aborted pulls. up at 20+ psi I need to run single digit timing to keep det away.

Probaby won't do 380whp on the street until I get some e85. It was just pushing it a little harder than I want to.

15psi is ~300hp. Great on the street.
20psi is ~330hp+. Great for mexico runs.

Spark table:



And log. 291kpa

In case you were wondering, your miata has a power to weight ratio (at 370whp) that is IDENTICAL to a 2009 ZR1.... So... there is that...

Car weighed 2350 at the last weigh station I stopped at with me in it. So 2150 without me?

Anytime

In all seriousness. The glory run was sketchy. Its more boost than I want to run on 92 octane. and 5* of timing is just not nice to exhaust valves.

How much dyno time did that take?

Congrats on the numbers!

Little under 3 hours. Blew a coupler off the turbo and that killed 15 minutes.
