I used to work at a mazda dealership. Customers would usually compare it to the bmw z3 saying that the z3 was faster. The manager would overhear and tell me to take em on a hot lap around town. The miata can literally be thrown into a corner and be adjusted mid turn with a small amount of steering input. These customers were amazed and NONE of them mentioned the z3 after our run. Some said it was the fastest they had been in. We sold dozens of em per month. They really are a scalpel. Never driven one with a turbo but, one guy had a 5.0 liter ford motor in his that sounded like it meant business. Great car and video. Thanks for bringing back the memories fellas!

[@charlieward7606]

yeah but even a 1.9 z3 is considerably faster stock xD

[@JHANKSMEDIA]

Charlie Ward maybe, but it’s not gonna drive like a Miata.

[@charlieward7606]

yeah its different but just as capable , older bmws have great handling

[@alvinross7243]

gonna have to start using that one when people give me shit and tell me to get a diffrent car haha. Old beamers are quick and grip but dont have the same driving feel as the miata and don't inspire as much confidence in drivers at the limit (on a track this is ok, but back roads you might fly off a cliff" turbo is a great route just finishing my 92 C Package with a 1.8l and gt2871r, should be up and tuned soon when i get the exhuast done. Will film at the dyno in a couple weeks when it gets tuned.

[@charlieward7606]

well i drift them and corner with them constantly, they were my first and only cars so im very confident in them, its just what you are used too. and if you think a e30 doest have driving feel then you have never driven one lol

[@IamJ007]

Feeling Blessed. Just found a 91' garage kept, 85 year old man owned it. So, clean unreal. A/C car 5speed. recent 5k service at Mazda, new OEM exhaust and tires. 2500 cash. I swear I'm sitting on 10-12k of car. Such a blast to drive. When I open the garage and see it. Can't believe I got it for 2500 lol.

[@dalethompson595]

That's his only green shirt? Wouldn't let him tune my car.

[@JustKyzuuh]

Hasn't dynoed yet, followed by 250whp, then "this thing must be at least 260whp" and the title says 270. You're stretching bud. The cx turbos don't flow very well. I'd wager he's at maybe 240 if he's lucky.

[@MrCrash12190]

JustKyzuuh car Dyno'd at 289 wheel.

[@JustKyzuuh]

Crash12190 lol no it didn't

[@MrCrash12190]

Lol okay bud.

[@J3n555]

Same, I call BS. "Probably making.." "probably around". Dyno then prove it before calling out making anything close to what gregs stock 1.6 was making.

[@JustKyzuuh]

And then in the video, he says is on 15-16psi but the thumbnail says 20.

[@maddydiamond2260]

So many haters but i really like this thing. Dont always have to use the most expensive setup to make power to have fun with. Similar to my turbo 1.6 setup

[@mrprodigy8801]

You should do a build walk-through

[@LTMCMedia]

Aaaaaaand i'm boosting my 1.6. You've convinced me.

[@ptraides8223]

How did it go?

[@despicablecbr600]

1.6 are easier to build due to the factory oil ports

[@garageworm17]

@@despicablecbr600 make sure you use arp head studs to hold the head down we lifted the head on my buddy 1.6 at 22 psi

[@nicknigro776]

😂

[@steevennunez4801]

garage worm 17 22PSI 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 OMG it wouldn’t surprise me

[@111dontworry]

The stock miata 1.6 can hold a lot of power, but it's torque and where it comes in that bends rods. Higher Torque levels at higher rpms tend to treat the rods better. So a bigger turbo will definitely be easy on these engines.

[@Drifty325i]

So many guys complaining about the whp, boost, can’t make this can’t make that. Who cares in reality, it’s seems like a really fun little car! I’m a turbo Lotus Elise and 73 RS 911 rep owner and still want this thing big time!

[@AM-zr6sd]

Drifty325i I’m not complaining, but why is it called the spool *B U S*?

[@saucymiata525]

That breather filter on the valve cover will fill up with oil vapor and eventually drip everywhere if he keeps it like that. He needs a good catch can asap if he doesnt want a mess.

[@vkotis]

I've been running one on mine for about 8 years and it's never filled up with oil vapor. Not saying it can't, but I heard that's just one of those rumours going around.

[@nickwild7]

I highly doubt it. 2 years of running a catch can off the breather and not a drop. And the other side closes above like 4500rpm to prevent oil into the manifold.

[@saucymiata525]

vincent I've seen it happen

[@saucymiata525]

Nicholas Wild I seent it

[@vkotis]

I believe you. But it really shouldn't happen unless there's some serious blow-by from either ruined rings or a very high hp car. Best to be on the safe side anyway.

[@BoostedNDMiata]

Currently in the middle of a 400 whp NA build now that the 300 whp ND1 build is complete.

[@joshschonfeld3675]

"Spool Bus" was a badass squarebody S10 Blazer from here in Indiana that actually was painted like a school bus with a stop sign that stuck out on the side and everything. It's still floating around somewhere and it's a monster. I love the Miata though! We definitely need more built Miatas out there. I'd like to see a big turbo Billet 13B swapped NA or NB Miata!

[@sebastianguerrero5488]

I've now decided to go full send and daily one of these with a turbo🤣

[@wholelottamiata6976]

Yea Greg’s car made 290 on a stock bottom end till it blew up 😂

[@gypsymanjeff2184]

Got one 3yrs ago ..ur right on 1.6s looking to boost ..old school rodder since 60s.can't afford 5mpg that how came across this now gots ta juice her up ...need some leads so .....in Seattle area

[@T_L_]

Geez... My ‘91 has a t3/t4 with stock injectors and stock fuel pump making roughly 190whp and the car is absolutely a different animal. It’s surprising how quick it is for such a small amount of power, but it only weighs 2100 lbs.

[@jacobhaines8852]

Sick build. But no coolant reroute😬

[@timholubowitch9097]

Haha right.

[@purpleroadster7306]

Jacob Haines and stock radiator double yikes

[@andrewcowden9704]

When your engine is a consumable item, then the engine isn't "holding the power"

[@griffinmackenzie]

Tell that to the dsm guys lol

[@IxOVERKILLxI]

So wait, pump gas, 440s, cx turbo thats known to not flow well, with no reroute and stock radiator that overheats a stock 1.6, youre about to be super disapointed

[@scottmason2245]

You already know

[@turbochargers7841]

I think I hear knocking at low RPM’s, not sure why you wouldn’t dyno tune it ASAP to get dialed in. professionally.

I have a 90 mx5, stock 1.6, but I think I got a burnt piston bearing, anyway I been debating on weather I should just fix up my 1.6 or get a swap, I think ima just build my 1.6 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@jackiefinkle2064]

"certified tuner" lol

[@MrCrash12190]

Jackie Finkle got a fancy plaque and everything

[@slandon1977]

Well, there ARE official training classes for Haltech, etc. To me though, having a lot of experience tuning multiple platforms outweighs any class you may have taken. Heck, I have "taken" most every High Performance Academy online tuning course and I wouldn't feel comfortable tuning a customers car unsupervised.

[@tonycrivera]

"I'm taking your lunch money away" 🤷🏾‍♂️😂 😂 😂 😂 🤣

[@nathanielLEGACY]

New edition sti’s are a bit of a joke. Wrx with the 2.0 is the way to go. They lose way less power through drivetrain compared to the sti. Check car and driver articles on it. Sweet Miata tho. Love the merlot!

[@njjx8800]

Jesus. 15-16psi on a stock motor without the coolant reroute. I wish I had his courage

Will be posting my turbo Miata build on my channel soon as well as a restoration Miata project I picked up for anyone interested in Miata content ❤️❤️❤️

[@jaewhite2462]

The 1.6 is just getting started at 270. Heads are the limiter when you get over 400 it starts getting complicated.

[@GasPedalGarage]

270 is close to the end of a 1.6 haha not the start, and to get to 400 you better have deep pockets just ask Greg aka Miata dad

[@daleabono3616]

Nicely done. I thoroughly enjoyed this video.

[@hero-chan4870]

sheesh that 2jz mod is looking hot

You know psi has nothing to do with horsepower, you can get 20 psi from a tiny ass turbo that's pushed far beyond its efficiency range

Cory Keene that's a 1.8 it's a better engine with much stronger factory rods

I don’t understand why no one dynos their car. In Australia at least you can a 3 pull print out for 100 AUD, 60 usd?

[@erebus38]

While I now own and drive a stock Mazdaspeed 3 I still also have my last car sitting in my garage,which is a 2000 year model NB 1.8 liter that's stock as well with just a short ram intake. The car used to run just fine,but started having some odd unknown issue where it would randomly break down on me and after being left alone for an hour would crank right back up as if there was never even a problem in the first place but in time,it just wouldn't ever even crank up at all one day and haven't figured out the problem since and that's why I now own and drive a 2010 MS3 instead. While the MS3 is certainly a beast in stock form compared to the Miata,it just isn't anywhere near as fun to drive due to it's lack of go kart like feeling and handling like the Miata has. If I had the money and time as well as the tools I'd be doing whatever I could to get the car up and running again but for the time being at the very least,I don't really have any of that sort of stuff and so the car is sitting in the garage collecting dust.

[@jarrettmertz5340]

[@hewbambam]

270 hp with a stock cooling system is asking for trouble if you ask me. It would be interesting to see how it's going now

Go miata..I raced rx7S back in the mid 80s..I have had 2 miatas since..absolutely love them...97 and 2004..I plan getting back to spending all my money again one day and buy a southern car with no rust and do it up...or just have one all done and I just pull the trigger on it..btw Yanni.. play keyboards?

Bryan Marquez is you want fast Spool and 230whp I would recommend the 2560r and if you want fast street car slower spool do the 2860r

[@billieyklepto1229]

What about a 94.mx5 1.8....will.a cheap ebay kit do anything?

[@Poopeepooo123]

made for boost. barely made 300whp and already max out the stock internals. s2000, not made for boost, can make 600whp+ with a turbo.

[@KeuzySC]

Weakest link is the rods, like a No. 2 pencil, definitely not made for boost. The block, however...

[@Fee.1]

What’s your built motor spec? What’s it going to cost?

[@SWFlowseeker]

Nice build. Wheels are 15x8? Tires 205?

[@WigglingWaffles]

i like the stock radiator. i bet coolant temps go fucking nuts on the highway

[@Megacatares]

your valve cover vent - if venting good oil etc will set your car on fire when it touches the turbo.

that color is so good

[@RobertMilat]

I like that you guys are into the 1.6, but I don't think it's a good attitude to think you can blow them up and not care, because there's not an infinite amount of 1.6 engines, one day they're going to become rare and hard to get if people don't take proper care of them
