Are you kidding? blow through carb is fucking gross. Especially when MS3 is cheaper than the carb alone!

They said it in the first paragraph
"the need for complicated electronic fuel injection scares many enthusiasts away"

Which i read as
"Ignorant people be like carbs r awesomesaucy"

18psi 09-11-2015 08:58 AM

rofl @ carbs vs ms3

hi_im_sean 09-11-2015 09:35 AM

so im reading this:

https://www.miataturbo.net/engine-pe...antness-85172/

and while its discussed that working vics is good for some power somewhere on an NA, is it worth the hassle on a boosted motor?

plug or keep vics?

18psi 09-11-2015 09:45 AM

plug?
what does that mean?

You'd be insane to not keep and use the VICS in fully functional form and controlled with ethe MS

I think emilio said it should be dynoed ideally, but is there an rpm to set them to open at thats a good starting point?
