looks like some serious fun.........

 

makes me want a cowl hood to looks nice even if it is yellow:P

 

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

 

now if he could only drive it:

thats when it becomes the highway beast......my taste entirely..... im loving it. if i werent getting an FD, this is the type miata i'd shoot for

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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.

 

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.

 

That's why I put the "" around stock

 

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.

 

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.
