Record Dyno Pull
I ran my car at Gridlife's Mid Ohio meet last weekend, and also got on my friend's mobile dyno. My car currently holds the record...for lowest power Miata that's crossed the rollers:
https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...d16baf3c97.jpg The car runs like a top, just a slow, ugly top. It's a 92 with a NA8 power train swap running the 1.6 ecu, throttle body, and maf, which isn't doing the old stock 1.8 any favors up top. I've started collecting parts for a modest turbo setup, that dyno sheet can't go anywhere but up from here. Well, up or a flat line I guess. |
Haha, looks about right to me. Get yourself a MS3 and a decent turbo setup, and you'll more than double that easily.

You should probably put a cage in.
thats allot of horsepower for one man to handle |
Damn that’s a 1.8 too? Jeez. Even my bone stock 225k mile NA6 managed 104 whp

That’s just the restrictive 1.6 AFM. The results look even worse thanks actually to the gains of the 1.8 at lower RPMs. Just think how bad it’d be with the 1.6.
get the MS installed, AFM deleted, and enjoy an extra 10-15hp once properly tuned. you may also want to get rid of the FM throttle body adapter and bolt on a 1.8 unit. |

Dude that convinced Burt to 1.8 swap here and one of the dyno operators :wavey: We've had quite a few Miata's of various flavors across this dyno since my buddy Ryan picked it up. My old turbo motor lives on it in Ryan's Miata naturally aspirated and we saw 115 whp tuned with a speedy but breathing through the stock AFM (stealth mod), we saw a 6 whp increase to 121 whp ditching the AFM. Before we tuned it the car ran like hot dog shit on the stock 1.6 electronics, the prevailing wisdom is to use the 1.8 injectors with the 1.8 motor but I honestly think it makes them run too rich. Didn't get a chance to verify this on the dyno but something is definitely not optimized doing the swap on the 1.6 ecm.
