I noticed this too, and no heater core. I wonder if anything is flowing out the back of the head.

What's that FM Guru rear end they're talking about on .net?

mxv 09-25-2006 08:37 PM

haha id sure like to see his "fast" 1/4 mile with a powerband like that. wow if thats the highest hp miata out there it wont take long for that to get topped. hard to beleive there arnt any monster miatas making that much:confused:

jayc72 09-25-2006 08:59 PM

I don't there's any claim that it's the highest HP miata, just the highest HP with a "stock" motor. There is someone local to me that has a V8 Supercharged miata that's on the bottle. Bet it's in excess of 600whp.

aw ok makes sense now:ugh2:

RusMan 09-26-2006 12:23 AM

Thanks pitlab, does anyone know if he's running a 1.8 diff or rx7 one? Just wondering at what will work with high hp #'s.

bripab007 09-26-2006 08:25 AM

He's running the Guru LSD in a 7" Miata diff. housing.

BTW, pretty sure that's not a stock motor...and pretty sure it's just about the highest-power BP out there. Skyler's car was probably "only" making around 500-550rwhp, and he turned a 10.4 @ 139 (memory's a little fuzzy, but I believe that's about right).

Most of the V8 guys don't go for crazy amounts of horsepower, believe it or not. A few of them are in the 400+rwhp/lb-ft zone, but the majority are in the 250-350rwhp area.

jayc72 09-26-2006 10:36 AM

That's why I put the "" around stock :)

RusMan 09-26-2006 11:03 PM

I think he ment stock as in not swapped engine.

So my 1.8 '99 diff should be good for like 3-400whp right? Just wondering because I might go high hp, just doing my research for now.

bripab007 09-26-2006 11:55 PM

Depends on how ya use it, but yeah, I'd guess that if you're not doing 1.5-second 60-ft. launches on drag radials every Friday night, it'll probably last a long time. The 5-speed and the axles will definitely break first.
