0-60 times for a turbo miata
 

For a 190 hp miata, what are the 0-60 times?
What about a 220 hp miata?
A 270 hp miata?

a 23874982734982374 x 10^82 hp miata

btw I chose these numbers because if I get a miata, those would be the pwoer benchmarks I would be looking into

btw first person to respond gets a free cookie and SamNavy's house address

anywhere from 14.5 to 13.5 or so. really depends on the driver and 60' times.

Wheel or crank power?

Wow, so my naturally aspirated NA will outrun a turbo?










:gay:

if you can shave off two seconds, then yes.

I would guess mid 5's at 270 whp.

mid 5's? you mean 12-13s?

I'm guessing that when the original poster asked for 0-60 times he was referring to 0-60MPH, which is a much more commonly understood figure than 0-60' amongst the proletariat. So apart from involving a gross mis-use of the apostrophe (my one and only grammar pet-peeve) the answer "Mid 5's" is probably a good one.

I did not realize that the apostrophe was incorrectly used. I stand corrected.

Hehehe. Sorry, I was actually trying to be ironic. We have lots of spelling and grammar nazis around here, but so far no punctuation police. Just givin' you a hard time, man. :bigtu:

Quarter mile times are a better measurement with a turbo miata, unless its got slicks. What about an AWD conversion from a GTX? Someone try it, can't be that hard you wimps.

Thats like converting a neon to a SRT-4...just buy a damn GTX.

I think they guy is talking 0-60 MPH hommies.

also depends on your final.

hahaha, im dumb

it's going to be hard to say because very few people measure their 0-60 time. To get an accurate measurement you'd need a good GPS receiver for one.

its funny that a 250whp miata probably runs a mid to low 5-second 0-60, and will shit all over pretty much anything at the road course on similar rubber.

i think they have faster 0-60 times than quarter mile times.
compared to other cars.

A 270rwhp Miata is going to be way, WAY fast if you can hook up the power. If you've got sticky enough rubber and tall enough gearing, you're talking 0-60 in 4.5 seconds and under 13 seconds for the 1/4 at over 110mph.

i should hope mid 12's would happen at 270. 0-60 depends on the rear a 3.6 could get 4 or less with that much given how light we are and the headroom of the gears. a 4.3 would take carefull driving to breack less than 5 for sure 1st is to short in that case i would start in 2nd given your clutch can ahndle it.

According to my Gtech Pro RR, today my best 0-60 was 5.682sec.

2.171 60'
9.120 1/8 mi @82.32
13.933 1/4mi @ 103.83

Stock: 7.616sec 0-60
2.518 60'
10.363 1/8mi @ 72.14
15.797 1/4 @ 91.85

Why has the car so bloody low gearing anyway ?
You get to what...120mph and you kiss the gears goodbye.
Oh oh....now somebodys gonna try and fit a 6 speed :eek4dance

the 6spd has even lower gearing. The car has low gearing because the stock motor 100 hp would not move w/o it.

sams, how much hp are you putting down

I was kidding but I have seen some local hillbillies do something similar using a civic wagon awd system. It didn't work very well. Duh.

Not sure, GT2554 @ 7psi. The Gtech said I'm at 152hp and 133ft lb

Amazing numbers for a T25@ 7psi!! :eek: :bigtu:

I can't wait for mine to be completed!!!:cool:

traction limited FTL

I would more realistically look at a 220hp miata, 270hp is a huge step excluding the fact thats its a 50 hp hop. When your running 270 your definitely talking about danger to tranny/motor/clutch. So unless your willing to work on those components, I would shoot for 220.

0-60 = 4.952 seconds on my G-Tech Pro.

This was my infamous "test run" before the real thing (when I got a ticket for going 114 in a 55). You can look at this datalog to compare my 200 HP Miata with my mother's 1999 bad ass automatic Vette (the '99 was one of the fastest production cars of all time in case you didn't know).

FWIW, the 1/8 mile time on the G-Tech is pretty damn close to what I run on the track.

The jump from 220 to 270rwhp is huge. 220rwhp is a very nice T25 setup or a modest T3 setup; 270rwhp is a GT30 or a big GT28 series, standalone fuel management, and serious stress on the diff and tranny.

ahh thanks for all the info guys!
