6 Attachment(s)
Hey all, i've had a miata before which i intended to turbo but it never happened as i lost my job, however been back at work a couple of years now and ive just sold my integra type r and treated myself to my first miata turbo :) or mx5 as we say over here in england.. :P
Here she is: Attachment 196452 Attachment 196453 Attachment 196454 Attachment 196455 Attachment 196456 Attachment 196457 I have fallen in love with the car, it really s an awesome machine, however it is not close to being as fast as i was expecting, it has been road mapped on a T25 Hybrid (which i dont the spec of) at 8psi... my first job is going to be getting remapped to 15psi or buy a T28 chinacharger and then get it mapped.. i know alot of people dont like them china chargers but i know a few people who run them no problem!! |
White power!
|
Nice shots! Definitly crank up the boost, I could't imagine running around on 8psi ;)

Nice car.
I'm envious of your extra room on the exhaust side of the engine. Probably could use a heat shield still, for the intake's sake. |
Very clean and seemingly well sorted out car....How bout some more details on any other mods?
I bet at 15psi you'll be where you want to be Congrats ps--whats the bloody price you'd expect to pay across the pond for a boosted mx-5 ya tallywanker? |
Nice garage too.

haha TonyV!! I paid £4000 for this, but a boosted Mk1 MX5 will start at 2500 and go up to around £5000 although i have seen them more expensive!!
Here is the full spec list of the car: Engine 1.6 16v Corksport USA exhaust Manifold T25 Hybrid Turbo – rebuilt with new seals less than 500miles ago by Turbo Force UK Stainless turbo oil feed hosing.

Other than that clean car. |
Those 305 injectors are why it's at 8psi btw, keep it there until you upgrade to larger units.
|
I want a white NA.
