These are 225x14 hoosiers on the 14x7 team dynamics. Can't wait for spring!



before on the stockers



dyno sheet at 9 psi w ubercharger and link. Now running 19 psi with AEM.

 

Those Team Dynamics look familiar

 

They look fantastic with the red....can't wait to get my wheels on.

 

Thanks guys!

I wanted to get some 225/55/14 toyo RA1s mounted on there for the street, until I found out that the tires can crack and fail if they get below freezing!!!

They'll have to wait for April I guess. Besides, with the car as low as it is there's no point in attemting to fix any handling issues till I get it back up to stock ride height with some ebay coilovers.

 

Chris, what's the first event around here come spring?

 

The car looks great dude.. and those wheels and rubber

Any engine shots of the uber?

 

Here you can see the rediculously overpriced SARD adapter on the front of the Vishnu fuel rail I had to get to add an aftermarket fpr. The stock one is only good to about one Bar. You can also just make out the GM Map sensor that I attached at the fuse block behind the FPR. I hate the routing of all the hoses as I bought it, and my FPR job isn't exactly elegent, but It's gunna stay that way until I pop the motor.



Here's the RB header, and a firewall hole that I want to rivet a piece of alumium over. I'm thinking about hacking off the collector on the RB header, and welding on a nicer merge collecto that has a 3" collector so that I can make a decent straight through exhaust. I have a longitudinal RB muffler that looks really nice, but I suspect has lost most of it's pack, it's too loud.

 

Here's a 1.6L motor with the ubercharger and the same intercooler piping that I have. I'm seeing close to 170 F IATs sometimes, and that's in the winter! Probably not too bad considering that the IATs are probably near 400 F before the intercooler, but still not good enough IMOP. Also the TB is at the supercharger entrance, which means the IAC is as well. The IAC (intake air control motor) just can't work properly with six feet of intake piping between the IAC and valves, and I get a more surging at "idle" (500-2000 rpm)then I'd like.




Here's a great pic of the bottom of the uber mani. I dream about welding an air-to-water intercooler directly to the manifold and getting rid of all the intercooler plumbing to help smoothe out the idle and improve throttle response. At these levels the stock TB is a restriction as well. A 90mm LS1 TB would be nice, but would be very custom.



Most of this stuff will probably not happen for a long time as the miata is my daily (other than my explorer) and when ever I'm working on it I rush it because I want to get back to my LS7 240sx that has been 3 year long project:

and

Thanks for the pics man.

I've always had a thing for whipple'd miatas. If I could find a 1.6 Uber for sale, I would ****** it up in a heartbeat.

 

It really turns the miata into an impressive vehicle. INSTANT boost at ANY rpm. It'll step the rear out at low speeds like it's running a big small block.
