Boosted Pulls & First Impressions Of The Turbo Miata (Rebirth Ep43)

[@destin6041]

Low key got a semi when I saw this video

[@drmoss_ca]

"The song of my people"? So sad I live in Nova Scotia. I've had my NA since new in 1991, but she's had to go away for the deep snow and salty road seasons. Out every summer and tucked away each winter until 2001 when my work life went to hell after my business partner jumped ship. 16 years later, I have retired after developing leukemia, the Miata has been reborn (new paint, a new tan top and new wheels) and I did a wonderful road trip round the Cabot Trail this fall. Planning another next summer if I'm around. The car has only 36,000km! - I've got to use it a whole lot more before I pass it on.

[@TrackYata]

that shifts made me have to change my pants.. 5 times.. damn..

[@baltod4978]

I was watching this a year or so ago wishing I had a turbo miata.... and now I've got a FM S1 GT2560R complete turbo kit sitting in my living room. I can't waitttttttt! Just waiting on my happy meals clutch. I'll be part of the club soon Greg!!!

[@josecarimorb9491]

wtf its like a sequencial

[@justinmanse2849]

carimo tuning for real wtf lol

[@TheYz250fmf]

insane!

[@crawford323]

Ah yes you and your girl are in your exploring phase. Learning about her and how well you are matched. The love is growing. The Miata I mean.

[@corgifoxruby]

Has thousands into engine bay, still has broken dip stick hahaa

[@JustKyzuuh]

They all break on miatas. No use in fixing when it'll break again. Most people put them on their keychains lol

[@corgifoxruby]

I'm aware. I have a Miata. It's just funny haha.

[@bobbiewahab6323]

Could say it's one way to reduce weight on the car 😎

[@MyLonewolf25]

It doesn’t make it fast It doesn’t get fixed XD

[@jv6miata]

I looked back at old pictures of my first miata and it had an unbroken dipstick 😭

[@leewinkler1505]

I hope you are happy with how the car turned out because all the hard work you put in was definitely a success. Great build and videos!

[@DustyMacsGarage]

Beautiful setup Greg, so crunk to see all your hard work pay off man. High Quality build, with care and attention to detail the whole way, its evident with how everything works seamless together. And more importantly you did it all :) do work as always bro! 230+ likes and 0 dislikes, tell me where else you'll see that... I'll wait... ✌

[@MidnightMiata]

Once you get everything all dialed in, you should give it to Matt Farah for a One Take!

[@turdbucket9696]

xMidnight matt farah is done with one take 😢

[@MidnightMiata]

Turd bucket I don't think so. He just released one this morning

[@turdbucket9696]

xMidnight that’s just his back log . Check out his videos he talks about not doing any more and just posting what he as left to edit .

[@MidnightMiata]

Turd bucket Well now that's just unfortunate

[@GudJuJuTV]

Why did he stop?!

[@Bassstringz]

Dream miata build right there... Congratulations Craighh! I'm so happy to see your car running again!

[@TheDuke539]

You probably already know this, considering most of my Miata knowledge came from you.... But you can add a couple extra degrees of timing at 800 rpm in MS, and the extra power will help catch the falling idle. I was having a similar 'issue' with heavy electric loads (headlights, heater, etc) and 2 degrees of timing just below idle solved my idle dip. Awesome videos and build, btw.

[@TheCarPassionChannel]

+WFOinCO Yep I've got idle-advance set up with 0s delay so as it drops lower timing is immediately added. Definitely helps!

[@JustKyzuuh]

Ooh good idea, I'll have to mess with this. Idle dropping seems to be a common issue.........

[@glock29sf]

New here. Bro, yo engine bay clean as fuck. Also notification gang!

[@eddarell9474]

Wow! 👍👍 props Greg! enjoyable update video!! Thanks for sharing this awesomeness of a boosted Miata 🚗💥💨!

[@shaneeickmeier6213]

Greg, you should spin those hose clamps on the coolant re-route by the intake before they rub a hole and cause a boost leak.

[@deathcogunit106]

Exactly what I came here to say.

[@MitchelYardley]

I love corn

[@КлиментЦонков]

I prefer pizza

[@hondakias09]

The shifts are epic... Great build Greg.. This is what taking your time and overthinking does... The ultimate street miata! Congrats!!

[@davidphasey5438]

I love how you have really thought about every detail to try and create a car that gives you the driving experience you want. The boost, the shifting, the steering etc. In some ways, I think it is the sum of all those clever choices that will put the big smile on your face over the dyno figures....although I'm sure the dyno figures will also generate a big grin!

[@TheCarPassionChannel]

+David Phasey It's what I've wanted from the first day of this build. I took all the knowledge and driving experience from the 1.6T and just kept refining what I didn't like, and improving the parts I did. The peak hp number isn't going to be a shocker, but anyone riding in the passenger seat in a canyon will truly understand my build strategy.

[@fentuz]

Nice to see it coming together. I liked the fact that you chose turbo setup for what appears to be a broad torque curve rather than a narrow high torque curve at high Rpm.

[@reneneron2971]

Congrats, Greg. For your catch can, consider venting it using a fitting on your intake (after the air filter and before the inlet to your turn). This is always ad atmosphere or owner air pressure, and will return any blow your to the combustion chamber rather than just venting to atmosphere. When vacuum is present at higher air flow to the engine, the efficiency of the PCV system is increased relative to your current set up.

[@paulmason7871]

At last....! and the smile on your face .... don't care what anyone says... boost in a mx5 (miata) is priceless :))so cool all the extra work you put in to show and explain .... great work cant wait for the dyno !!!!

[@Curtis1900]

Theres really so much to say about this miata so happy for you dude Greg the prince of miatas is back

[@Dollsofgod]

9:25 Dat spooky check engine light

[@dil6969]

Wow. That shifting sounds like a sequential transmission. It must feel good to be back in the land of boost :)

[@tinkerscustom9568]

Yay! Finally get to ride in the Miata! It looks sooooo good man. Wow the shifts looks great, can even see the shift when the camera jerks a little, but man it's such a fast shift. There is no boost building at high rpm! It's already there lol Great points on why you choose that turbo. I can not wait to see the Dyno numbers! Best song yet man! (The down shifts sound SOOOOO good!)

[@mikegarbrandt]

Congratulations bud! Car came out so epic! That smile from ear to ear there just shows how awesome the car came out!

[@AF29007]

dear lawwdy that shifting with the twin disc is fantastic

[@maakyt123]

Great to see it back from the dead

[@sil-80boy45]

Love that long road, took my miata there, by the end got to about 60mph foot to the floor 😏😂

[@beatricethemiata8565]

Great music in this one 😍 got Goosebumps lol

[@scottmason2245]

Thanks Greg for all your vids! You've been an inspiration and a wealth of information. I am currently building a red 90 miata with all kinds of aftermarket parts including an ms3pro with a flying miata turbo kit. 2 years in now and just about complete! Thanks again greg.

[@baltod4978]

@ 13:21 Under that bridge is where I got rear ended at a dead stop trying to get into traffic... I (unfortunately) miss San Diego. Wish I'd of met you before I left! I'm in Oregon now and just bought my first Miata! Stoaked for it!!!

[@Loebane]

Those shifts are absolutely amazing - your build quality is top notch. Note though - 7:17 the engine decelerating does not have 'momentum' in decreasing speed. All loss of rotational speed is caused by friction/pumping losses. Changing the over-run fuel cut can help with that.

[@asparceproton1]

Wow. EFR is the real deal. Congrats, Greg. Very glad to see she's boosting, best of luck at the dyno. I think she's gonna be just fine :)

[@mrmohr2]

I love your choice of turbo. I have a 2004 Mazdaspeed, and it doesn't spool that quickly! It also has the silly 6 speed that spins the engine at 4000 RPM at 80mph. I would love 300hp, and a quick spooling turbo. I too want a great street machine, not a drag racer. Sure, I'd like to dust some Mustang GT's, but more importantly I want predictable power for curvy roads. I really appreciate the research you have done and shared!

[@MacJunior696]

Looking good Greg! Enjoy the long awaited drives!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Driving it must be amazing

[@aaron_z3383]

I've seen a few miatas have shifting issues but man your setup is super clean and smooth

[@cloudhidden1196]

Carpassionchannel’s turbo Miata is goals.

[@mexifinn7830]

Hey now, did you just call my Golf R a highway queen? I did just put a tune on it, and turbo lag is even worse. But, first time commenting. I got sucked into this video series and it's amazing. It started with following your timing belt DIY - I have a 1991 NA6 as my project car, and thanks to channels like yours, I have the confidence to not only restore my miata, but also do all of the maintenance on my daily driver (the R). Keep up the awesome work!

[@TheCarPassionChannel]

Sounds like the tune might have messed with the boost control, might be fixable!

[@mexifinn7830]

TheCarPassionChannel oh, no just big turbo lots of boost. It’s always been a laggy car. It’s like driving an old skool WRX. Once the boost kicks in it’s a rocket. Just funny that you used the term highway queen. Kind of matches the description perfectly :)

[@markmccawley2526]

Great job! "Back from the Dead"...Indeed! Thanks for the open pipe tunnel run.

[@jpgmccabe]

The ultimate self-build on KZbin, Greg you deserve an award! when are you shipping the kits would love one! Keep up the good work! Makes me want to take my Miata from Ireland to Spain....Need a garage to copy all your hard work. :-(

[@rodan9]

Start watching video on cell while eating tacos. Greg goes through his normal "hello my name is Greg Peters" Continue eating tacos. "intercooling piping is complete, it's officially boosted" Puts down current taco. Gets up and, grabs good headphones. Sit down watch entire video before touching another taco. Have eargasm.

[@ArmstrongRacing]

This is way cooler than I thought it would be....Good job man

[@robertwilkinson7566]

I am so glad that all your time and money is paying off!

[@kawininji8874]

Hit like while watching the ad.

[@kennanhasz166]

Loved watching you make progress on this build *craig*

[@Fuelfoxx]

Very nice Greg! So much work. Great result. I like that build a lot. Can‘t wait to see how much it makes.

[@manuelcontreras6465]

Nice setup... Great shiftings...!! 🍺

[@FascinateXII]

greg i just want to say ive been watching your channel for the longest and i love the progress, it so sad because now i have to do what you did to your miata to my Audi TT. Anyway keep boostin.

[@SpitfireZero]

43 Episodes later and you're back at the top Congrats BREG BETERS

[@jonkat323]

Those shifts?!

[@toxicmongoose7061]

Nice! grats on getting the car boosted and doing well. I just did the first start on my LS1 240sx swap. fired right up.. now to deal with the million small things!

[@laszlototh5956]

I am totally not into Miatas but this car gives me goosebumbs. Show the patreon account, I am so touched by the gearshifts I feel like I want to pay for this content.

[@mgamma5001]

Looks like a screamer man! Nice work and attention to detail.

[@TheBreakfastClb]

The car came out amazing Greg! Happy to see you driving it again. I'm so jealous of that angled shifter, I wish they made it for my car.

[@fabiohenriques9634]

That lip stitching tho, i love it 😬

[@MRTuning704]

Watched this 4 times now because it's so sick

[@38tech]

Loving it! I hope my build will come close to yours! Glad to se you did everthing the right way.

[@deadringerfpv6412]

Hands down best Miata channel

[@ExhaustedOfficial]

So hyped to see this driving, if I was you I’d take the clips of the shifts out, apparently KZbin doesn’t allow sexually seducing content 😂😂💪🏻

[@600rrgraham]

Damn man that thing came out nice. It’s insane how rev happy it is with that setup and the shifts are fast as the dickens

[@TClmnt]

Literally the best part of my day every time you upload

[@T07N]

Damn those epic race car shifting looks crunchy smooth

[@FiveFiveGarage]

I was just about to ask where the BOV was, but remembered that the 6258 has recirc built in. That is a very clean setup! The shifter action is NSFW. Awesome car, Greg!

[@CNMedia.Service]

Glad she is running solid so far!

[@sixthvision]

this has been such a journey watching you. i’m so happy about the transformation of your hair!! well done greg! and also building the yata:) ❤️❤️

[@AC3Yx]

My jaw hit the floor at 6:04 so happy for you man. Also sooo jealous

[@harrisdoesthings]

I'm so happy for you Greg

[@triathlonSDhsp]

Epic! Love the 805 tunnel rips. maybe see you at a autocross in 2018.

[@mixalisgeorgiou6203]

i f#cking love your job dude!!everytime i got a carpassion notification i got a smile too!!please do a Q&A i have so many questions!!!! +1 IF YOU WANT TOO!!!!

[@guidosaur7506]

Now do a video on how to pass CA emissions on this car lol

[@evanmortimore9771]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@benbunch4159]

I second that.

[@richaw11]

Watch brokeback mountain for ideas.

[@HvB82]

@@richaw11 😂😂😂👍

[@caldera193]

That quick shifting is epic

[@andrewstonepeltola]

love your channel. miata and my hometown. keep up the good work man.

[@AlexPerrucci]

Man those shifts are siiiiick.

[@sawomirraczynski7189]

Good luck mate. Amazing job looks so fresh

[@svandorst1]

Awesome vid! Glad the car is performing well. That "build up" of boost between shifts is insane. Shit looks like a roots blower on a V8 lol.

[@TheCarPassionChannel]

+Stephen Van Dorst Just the way I wanted it. :)

[@hummelink-modifications]

So in love with the shifting...

[@techracer100]

Its finally here... Congratulations..so worth it 😊

[@StoltzSTS]

So stoked Greg! Hard work pays off.

[@eel1331]

6:14 that shifting tho 😍😍😍

[@Miatayo]

Oh my, that gearbox/clutch looks amazing! Need this setup!

[@mazdaminigarage6298]

Love the build! Recently tried to buy a Miata but have had several deals fall through

[@Stubb0rn]

nice work as usual GP! Am worried about those jubilee clips chafing the charge cooler silicone at 2:06

[@billbeers69]

This is what ive been waiting for. Thanks step dad

[@lukemonsoon3394]

I've been checking my notifications so often just for this!!!!!!!

[@Alysavos-rd4tp]

damn that thing runs like a champ.....great job!!!

[@rollintwincam]

Thank you Greg, it's been an amazing journey

[@Stevey_B]

Great work, best looking Miata I've seen

[@cwatson42785]

Sweet car man. You did a really great job on the build. I was a early sub to your channel and you do a great job making the diy videos. Props on your build. It's clean

[@Klutchylol]

That clamp on your coolant reroute will rub through your intercooler silicone pipe eventually, unless you have solid engine mounts the intercooler pipe is going to lift up and down a little under boost which will wear through it over time, spin the clamp around a little :)

[@markw365]

rotate those two clamps on the coolant line where they're really close to the intake tube, they look like they can rub and cause problems down the line. Looks really good.

I've been waiting for this video for way too long

[@101TheKMan]

Those shifts though. Amazing!

[@Mugmagazine]

Good ass video! Those shifts 🤤 plus great tip with the moment of rpm’s. Took me a while to figure that out when I first bought my stage 3 TT 300zx

[@tehpillemannerator]

Back from dead. True words

[@DillonGuttridge]

god dam that clutch is godly, sounds like a dam sequential lol i loved this build since the beginning

[@crxsleeper18]

I love short gear boxes. To much fun

[@mm6705]

cant wait to see you turn it up!

[@JakonHilfars]

I've always wanted a Miata just like yours and it sounds so awesome I've watched every video from the start of your build you did an awesome job and wish I could drive it😅

[@antonyingram]

That gearshift looks so satisfying.
