Hello miataturbo.net ppl.
A Little about myself

My name is nathan and i'm 20 years old. I've had a miata for about 8 months now.

I'm coming from the cavalier/cobalt world. So i'm not a complete idiot on engines and how they work and what's needed to turbo. How ever i am an idiot on the miata lol

I plan on turbocharging the miata hopefully within a year or so. I'm a college student so money is short. A lot of saving.

I want to learn as much as possible on turbocharging before I take this step. Along the way i'll be gettin her up on maintenance and some basic bolt ons. If anyone has advice..THANX in advance. On to some pics. of her.

Welcome. So how many cavaliers/cobalts did you turbo charge?

bloodymiatalove 08-14-2010 04:06 PM

I haven't turboed any of them, but i've read a ton of information on it. I felt like turbocharging a cavalier or cobalt was a waste of money

my friend has a Cobalt SS Turbo with the Stage1 GM kit. Something like 280hp/280tq and it hauls ass.

bloodymiatalove 08-14-2010 04:39 PM

Nice, does he planning to do anything else to it?

dustinb 08-14-2010 05:05 PM

The cobalts are definitely worth turbo'ing. So much potential on them.

oh heck yea there is

just to me i'd rather turbo a rwd not a fwd. But that's just me. I've seen some CRAZY fast cobalts/cavaliers

You got it. Oh and welcome to the boards. I had a '96 Grand Am GT many years ago so I was into the Cavalier scene as well. I learned a lot but I'm so glad I moved on.

Thanx guys for the welcomes
