my ebay turbo'd miata video
 
mods are on my vbgarage. its at 13psi of boost on 91 octane. i just stopped at 75ish because it was as fast as i wanted to take it. its the first video i ever made of it, just thought i'd show how the ebay kit is working. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gORHuvfLloM

oh yeah i did. it was nursed out of the whole. i didnt really floor it until i was started in 1st. i wanted to check to see if it was clear before spinning the tires and such. according to gtech i've pulled 5.4secs on less mods.

Makes me want to get this project going a bit faster!

what turbo does the ebay kit use?

magnamx-5 03-04-2007 06:20 PM

a 16g knock off

hustler 03-04-2007 06:32 PM

ooooh, I want one.

dc2696 03-04-2007 06:50 PM

nicccccccce.

juhanis 03-04-2007 08:52 PM

well, something died today... my diff decided to blow apart. haha. 1.8 diff time. i noticed after i shot that video there was this wierd kind of tapping sound that got worse as i increased my speed. it would come and go, then today, boom, diff metal salad.

mxv 03-04-2007 09:22 PM

oooo ouch... sorry to hear :werd:

adbradley 03-04-2007 09:41 PM

at least you got the nice video... and more proof... 13psi+stock rear end=metal salad :)

UofACATS 03-04-2007 10:06 PM

Vid looks good to me. Sucks on the diff turning itself to salad, but at least you'll be able to launch it. Also, it did have 172K on it, so not bad eh.

Oh, do a before and after with the new diff. Sweet.

juhanis 03-04-2007 10:53 PM

yeah, i'm not really complaining. i know if the car was making stock power that thing would probably never break. it went out in good fashion... getting sideways in 2nd. hopefully i can get my 1.8 carrier, rx7 lsd, frankendiff done tomorrow. since the miata is my only car. i'll try to snap some pics if i get a chance to. and i'll get some pics of my diff metal salad with gear oil dressing. we'll see what happens, at least my clutch and transmission are holding.

miatamania 03-04-2007 10:57 PM

Dude...thats pretty sweet...I really want to get my car on the road now.

At what point did you get traction in that video? lol

juhanis 03-05-2007 01:41 AM

well my prototype mr mazda frankendiff is ready for testing. we shall see how it works. i just picked up all of my shafts and such today. now the only 2 things that are left in my drivetrain that are stock are the pressure plate, and the flywheel.

akaryrye 03-06-2007 01:11 AM

wow that sounded really sweet in the video. Ill be doing my 1.8 frankendiff next week sometime hopefully, ill bet it makes a major improvement in traction with that sort of power.

PaKMaN 03-06-2007 01:11 AM

Sounds badass is this the same setup you ran those 440cc's + RX7 AFM?
