The MP62 is the best Supercharger for a Miata, you can only make 250hp out of a Supercharged Miata and PatsMX5 is the Supercharged Miata expert. Check, Check and check.

Thanks guys for the continued support. Sorry for the delay in response. 16hr Shifts suck (dealing with homeless sucks more).

Anyway, x_25 I took a gander at your thread, but haven't had a chance to really read it. Looks like it will be a fountain of valuable information. Will save me from asking a lot of stupid questions.

Does anyone have any recommendations on injector size? If nobody has any suggestions, I'll probably just go with 640 or whatever the flow force is around that size.

Size less important than quality. Flow Force is big enough for your setup.

Flow force has only one size I believe. They are working fine on my 1.6, my friend's 1.6 and a ton of others.

I keep meaning to read through your build thread but I never remember to do it. What is the supercharger you are using because we all know your setup is amazing.

I'm using a 1.6L whipple.

The MP62 is ~ 1L

So for every revolution of the Supercharger, the Whipple is moving 60% more air....and it's doing it more efficiently and with less heat than the Eaton blower.

if you got barrels of cash, and tons of time, and want to build a PROPER supercharger setup, then go read TNTUBA's thread and copy his setup.

His is one of the very few SC setups here that no one makes fun of, because it's legit.
