I find it an absolute travesty that you don't do this for a living. Your fabrication is ridiculous. The car and engine bay look amazing.

We give up. Spit it out.

It is a hangar for the IC or exhaust, clever will have to keep that in mind for the next installation.
I make my hangars that are welded to the exhaust from 3/8" stainless tubing and use conpression fitting cones to keep the ruber hangars from slipping out. https://picasaweb.google.com/m/viewe...16082606463794 |
"Ballerest" is now a word.

Well its on the road now. The only problem is that it overboosts to 20+ psi in 3rd and 4th gear, even with no spring in the wastegate :/

Oh yeah and it makes 14 psi at 3150 rpm, on a totally stock 1.8 and a GT2860RS, which I believe is pretty good...
BUT, because of the boost creep issues, I am going to try a .86 housing. If that works but kills my spool too much, I guess I will go to a 44mm gate and a shorter dump tube route. |
Wow, torque under the curve must be phenomenal on this setup.
Start planning a built motor, those rods are on borrowed time. |
I feel like the cheap Rota's kill the awesomeness of this car.
|
I feel like everyone with a Miata has 6ULs (not knocking them at all, they are sweet wheels, just saying) and these are about the only other 15x9 +36, and they are only 2 lbs heavier than the 6ULs (14.75). And I got the set of 4 for 500 shipped - about $300 cheaper than 6ULs.
