Hey J! Love the build, looks like you've done a great job on this one. Let me know if you ever drive back through the area!

As for the spool data, you can't compare that directly to someone at sea level. You are over a mile high and your spool is definitely going to be negatively effected by that. Not sure if it makes up for what you are seeing per-say, but something to keep in mind.

A mile high, yes, my barometric pressure is usually above 30.0.

And I was spooling the 2 EFR'S on that AMG tonight :bigtu:

Sorry, the rivet, yes I used it, but I pull my car apart often. The rivet got kinda beat down after a while and I switched to a brass -4AN to NPT piece from ATP which I drilled a little bit.

Yes I run the restrictor, and I broke my motor, not my turbo.

I'm going to guess you still will have cooling issues. I thought you had decided on the supermiata csf crossflow. There are only two good radiators for the miata, and the other one is track$peed.

They market it as their own product, (if you are up for a laugh, give Bill at Miata Roadster a call, and literally just say "949", dude goes off!) but the "supermiata" crossflow radiator is a CSF product. Has CSF all over it. Just fyi. I was irritated when I first unboxed it. Not like it matters. I dunno, i'm also bored.

I run $105-$110 all aluminum ebay radiators or Trackspeed Engineering radiators in all my cars. It is one extreme of the other for me. Either buy the cheapest bang for the buck, or shell out and buy the best of the best.

You don't like 949. We get it.

Have you considered that CSF makes the 949 radiator to a specific set of specs for them? The same company can make 2 different radiators you know...

He basically changes his mind every week. He literally has a love/hate relationship with every single vendor about every single part he's ever owned.
Some of the issues are legit, some are not.

Just ignore it and move on.
