Little Car, Big Numbers. The VVT Turbo Miata Hits The Dyno! (Rebirth Ep45 - Finale)

[@SebastianD215]

415 hp, 1.9 liters, 20 psi, of e85 and straight piped Mustang killing madness. That is one, dangerous little engine. It's people like you that make me happy to be a car guy.

[@TomsTurboGarage]

Congratulations Greg! You deserve these awesome results in return for sharing the journey with all of us. I watched and enjoyed every video and learned lots too. Have fun!

[@somewhereintexas277]

Tom's Turbo Garage y'all shut race 😂

[@kingbryant5673]

Tom's Turbo Garage can we get a shootout between his Miata and thunderbolt plz that would be great

[@yuchungman]

If there's an opportunity for Greg and Thunderbolt to have a drag race, that would be internet gold!

[@JohnDoe-eo5iz]

As much as I love Greg, his miata probably would lose

[@TheCarPassionChannel]

@John Doe agreed. I do believe Thunderbolt is much better equipped as far as gearing and traction.

[@bluehorseshoe7171]

For many of us wrench-turners (in our spare time), we live vicariously through your ups, and downs. With that, this has been the most rewarding video series on KZbin. Thanks Greg. And congratulations on a project that has exceeded all expectations.

[@xpogosam9690]

So Greg announces the car as "reborn" just two days before christmas. What I am taking from this is that this miata is in fact the second coming.

[@КлиментЦонков]

Xpogosam He should call it Jesus. Even tho Jesus was reborn at Easter day.

[@paddys06]

230 bhp per litre in a car that weighs around a ton. Good times.

[@nahuelluna7071]

400+ hp miata...

[@КлиментЦонков]

Remember the golf r400 concept? Greg is doing it with just a 1.9!!!

[@КлиментЦонков]

And vw didn't even make it!

[@xXPandakXx]

lego technic a guy on Instagram is making 600hp on a 1.6

[@xXPandakXx]

Cooper Stephenson @mr._mattman

[@КлиментЦонков]

xXPandakXx Why don't car manufactorers do that?

[@hondakias09]

Dat face when the cut out is opened! Congrats Greg!!!

[@NassersGarage]

one of the best moments seeing that 415whp after all of that effort , this is worth it

[@AlbertDriveTherapy]

Dude I don't comment much on YT but I just gotta say I'm happy for you man! I'd be lying if I said I didn't get emotional watching this vid. I'm excited to see what your next adventures will be with this mosnter! :D

[@MsMotron]

really good numbers, but with the intake and exhaust super well flowing, you really deserve it.

[@koreyhobgood3367]

Good to see you complete such a long, expensive, and labor intensive project, you said in one of your videos that one of your goals was to leave a lasting impression in the car scene, I think it’s safe to say you have done that, in the Miata scene for sure. You have given us wealth’s of information and the videos are pure gold for us Miata owners, keep up the good work, man.

[@estewarrior1]

Dont care if you dont cry... i kinda did. I've been here tuning into your channel for a long time and i'm supper happy for you mate. Cheers from Colombia!

[@paulintile]

That final, straight-pipe E85 dyno pull was the best moment of all of your videos thus far.

[@willienelson5024]

I have watched every single episode you have put out on this build, and when you ran that open exhaust it made me smile and I am happy you got numbers higher than you expected. I thank you for all the videos and you deserve the fun you're about to have with your killer Miata.

[@Chimera6297]

this is quite possibly the best Miata channel on KZbin

[@djjensen1079]

Congratulations man! Been a big fan since “how to buy a Miata” Happy that you’re back with a vengeance!

[@triggamusician]

I cried a little when you were back at the place where the 1.6 died. So happy for you! Those numbers are amazing and will only be a dream for me. Looking forward to the future episodes!

[@graeparton1039]

One of the most informative, inspiration giving, horsepower making series on KZbin to date, if you ask me.

[@TheUberdude14]

Time for boost by gear my man lol

[@4399daniel]

When I need inspiration, I come back to watch this video when you hit the 415hp mark and jumped on the phone. So proud of you mate. Well done!

[@MidwestMotorVlog273]

I bought a stock NA a couple months ago after thinking very deeply about it for like two years. I've had a lot of cars, but something tells me this one is going to stick around and become a fun project Around the time that I bought the car, I found this channel. Watching this video and seeing the joy that car brings you was awesome. Nice Job!

[@x64bitplayer96]

GREAT JOB, Greg... I can hear your happiness and relief in your demeanor. Great work and the pay off was awesome. Wish you were on the east coast...

[@shaneeickmeier6213]

Congratulations Greg !!! You’ve got the glow of a proud father. I know how you feel from experience. What an accomplishment..... I can’t wait to see what’s next.

[@PwnEase]

Been watching since just before the start of Broke and Boosted. It's been so amazing to watch your videos keep getting better and better. Congrats on getting her back up and running! Can't wait to see how you follow up the Rebirth series

[@Biohazed]

BBBack From The Dead!!! Awesome finale. Thanks for the education and entertainment. Your tenacity and hard work paid off. Congrats! Too bad we couldn't all be there to help you out and then celebrate at the end.

[@Str33tfalcon]

45 Videos in 4 days.. THIS Greg, has been the most interesting journey with the highest amount of valuable content I have ever seen on KZbin! EPIC!! Many many thx for sharing all those great and sometimes rough moments with us. It has been a blast watching this series!

[@logansattell7549]

Congratulations Greg! Your build has become such an inspiration for this community. Seeing a quality project from start to finish is incredibly refreshing. Rock on brother!

[@dyno824]

Congrats Greg, really enjoyed watching . As a fellow 91 Miata owner, my hat's off to you .

[@paulcanaday9836]

Greg, I’m so happy to see you so happy! I’ve been with you a long time and you absolutely deserve this.

[@КлиментЦонков]

Paul Canaday you sound like you're his girlfriend or something.

[@crypticdemise9090]

This is amazing! The long journey was well worth it. So many chills during this video, first the 400+ hp, then the pulls! I could only imagine how great it feels. I wish I had the funds to do this to my 1.8... Best of luck to you in tearing apart those mustangs every day Greg! Thanks for taking so much time to explain everything throughout your build!!!

[@dang3114]

Seriously, this is the most rewarding and emotional video series I've ever watched. Thank you Greg. Congratulations.

[@charlesmcgehee3227]

Very nice seeing this beautiful build perform like this. You must feel very accomplished. This is the best channel of video's and tutorial's on KZbin by far. Thanks Greg. Your level of excitement shows just how much you love this work.

[@DDIAZ-we4dz]

Dude. I would of cried. All that money all that hard work and frustration. To see it all come together like that. It's gotta be better than seeing your new born for the first time.

[@wouterds7004]

Congratulations dude, wow! U are setting a real example here. I feel genuinely happy for you as i watched every single video, getting closer to your goal. You truly inspire me

[@slandon1977]

Watching this for probably the 20th time now... Still get goosebumps. I have an engine build that should be finishing up and going to tune in April, so it speaks to me.

[@J0WAY2FAST4U]

Welp that settles it! Im not shooting for a V8 swap anymore!

[@ilikeboost4764]

NightCrawler57 even though 1.9 is cool V8 is more reliable. I love Miata engines so basically do what you want.

[@drmoss_ca]

Very happy for you, Greg. I've had my NA since she was new in 1991, and I can enjoy her in stock form while getting my boost kicks vicariously through your videos. Congrats on your results.

[@THEALKYL]

We have a word for cars like this where I'm from: Witwenmacher. What an awesome car! Your channel inspired me to buy a 1.6 NA last summer and even though a build like yours is not feasible in Germany (to pass all the individual TÜV approvals would result in bankruptcy) I will definitely continue to modify mine. Congratulations and much respect for your work from Stuttgart.

[@deathcogunit106]

Hah, don't need to know any German to figure out what that means.

[@Alex-yx4vd]

wow, just wow. what a roller coaster. Glad i found this series once it was completed and binged. Congratulations on all your hard work.

[@david929190]

I just found it as well, 44 episodes to watch now.

[@Alex-yx4vd]

Sweet, its an excellent series, you learn a lot and get really invested into this little car.

[@trucandomilata2673]

Hi Greg, from Bilbao, i only have to tell you one thing mate, you deserve what you get.. Open mind, hard work, time studiying, saving money, spending money, spending moore money again but finally here is the beast. My most sincere congratulations, Happy new year mate!!! You are invited to another miata passion house in the best place of spain!!!

[@BerkeleyGang]

I have come across a few of your vids before at random. When I saw the video that became episode 1, with the death of the turbo 1.6, I knew I had to binge watch the series. Glad I did. No corners cut on the rebuild. Awesome. What a sweet ride. All this, and reliable enough to get you back home afterward. :D Seems kind of odd to offer you congratulations 2 years after the fact. I know a lot has changed since in these past two years, but this build is epic, and I'm not saying that just because I'm a Miata owner. I don't think I can look at the engine bay of my 95M the same way again.

[@TheCarPassionChannel]

Congratulations accepted 😅 the engine now has 13,000 miles on it and still running strong

[@BerkeleyGang]

@@TheCarPassionChannel As a former Californian, I'm just too curious: How on earth are you going to pass smog inspections with her? Must be an old enough car they don't trouble you with that? :D :D :D

[@jp_styleco]

Congrats! Thanks for all the inspiration you gave me to boost my Miata with your how to turbo a Miata video 2 years ago. Now I can't wait to build my motor and shoot for bigger numbers.

[@troysebo3172]

Greg, I literally jumped out of my seat screaming while watching this video. So happy for you! It has been a journey, and though it has been your wallet and adrenal glands that literally took the brunt of it we have all been here with you. Love this channel and can't wait to enjoy the Miata with you even thou it will be drive by wire on my end. Keep it up brother!!!!!

[@mathiasmang848]

This was so emotional to watch. It just felt like I was with you and the car. Awesome video Congrats Greg, the miata is officially reborn and it came back better than ever

[@paulm2701]

I can’t smash the like button hard enough. Congrats Greg without you and these videos my miata wouldn’t be where it is today.

[@jamesbadham3872]

my battery is on 45% and its 00:45am where I am, my mind is now blown. Well done with your car man! it flies!

[@LeftyTheNub]

Congrats man. I've been watching the whole build since the start. Glad to see her finally killing it on the dyno.

[@imboredadr]

I opened KZbin at the right time

[@Alucard7002]

Dude you are MAD for stuffing 400+ whp though that thing - LOVE IT! Definitely forget the first 3 gears, spinning all the way into 3 figures is nuts! Looking forward to more! :-D

[@Duke2387]

Finally seeing this car transform in to the epic piece of mechanical engineering you have slugged so hard over for yourself and your veiwers, is immensely satisfying/inspiring. Congrats Greg, might as well call you Dr Frankenstein from now on, truly creating your own monster. Just beautiful ✌🏻🇯🇵 #miataforlife

[@Jacob._.0619]

Congrats on the amazing numbers and your not even pushing the motor! All of your hard work payed off! Been around since 10k and its crazy to see how awesome everything turned out! Congrats again Greg!

[@tehpillemannerator]

What a trip man. So glad you achieved what you were hoping for. This is what true passion looks like and it turned out beyond awesome. Best wishes from Germany 🙏

[@BoostedMonkey4g63]

Congratulations Greg! It was a long journey but Im sure you are very satisfied with the results. Enjoy the results of your hard labor.

[@rollintwincam]

Thats awesome just to see you getting emotional with this car. So much time and effort you put into that and we can clearly see how big is the bond between you and that Killer Miata

[@Okibi5]

300+kw club, awesome work, have a great Christmas Greg. Thank you for sharing your build with us!

[@mikegarbrandt]

Greg unbelievable build man thanks for all the time you put into these videos and taking us along the way with you. Congratulations on hitting huge numbers here! You earned it! Cant wait for the video.

[@7777777mattdog]

I've been following your videos for just over 2 years now. And every time a new video comes out I'm super excited to check it out because you really put your soul into everything you do. You keep it fun and informative. Super super super excited for you and your amazing build, I've been dying for this video! Keep up the good work! I'll always be waiting for your next video :]

[@wesweaver6569]

Congrats. I hope to see more awesome videos from you. I bought my first miata in March 2016 and have been watching your videos ever since. I'm glad you have accomplished and learned so much. I appreciate the extend detail you go into on your videos. Good luck on your future projects.

[@FDB77]

I always love revisiting random videos from the Rebirth series from time to time. This one especially is one of the best. It really inspires me to build my NB like this one day :')

[@Moon_Quake]

Soooo awesome to see this build completed! 415whp in our tiny little cars, i cant even imagine... Cant wait for more! Congrats man we all know you put your heart and soul into this. Cant wait to see it smoke mustangs at the drags!!! (and all the other unsuspecting cars >:DD ) One day i hope my miata makes half as much horsepower as yours lol

[@drewstermalloy]

Welp, I just finished the whole Rebirth series... I've been wrenching on cars for years but I felt like I learned a TON of new stuff in every episode. It was all very educational, entertaining and super inspiring. I wish I could quit my job and just work on my NB all day. I can't wait to see what you come out with next.

[@ReignofStorms]

Congrats dude! It's been a long wait but we'll worth it. This just shows hardwork and dedication pay off!

[@ss327chevy]

As soon as I got the notification I smiled :) congrats Greg! It's been a long time coming. Keep up your fantastic videos.

[@pckanjer]

Greg, awesome build! I'm watching since you bought broke and boosted. I've learned so much about (Miata) engines thanks to you! Even bought a (stock) Miata myself. Thanks for everything, and hope you enjoy your vvt Miata.

[@musnireggie]

"I mean I'm not gonna cry, but this is an emotional day". Congrats man nice frickin numbers

[@Bocvn68]

Bro. Congrats on a super Epic Build that pushes some seriously impressive numbers. I'm sure you are going to have a hell of a time learning how to drive your Big Boosted Miata.

[@OriginalFilthy]

Hell yes I'm so happy to see things work out. I almost yelled out in joy for you.

[@dil6969]

It feels so good to see your car exceed your expectations after months of waiting and countless hours of work. For all intents and purposes, you're making as much power as a standard LS3 without too much extra weight. This thing is going to be a killing machine if you manage to get traction. P.S. - Get a fire extinguisher for this car!

[@TheCarPassionChannel]

+Dylan Lewis Already installed :)

[@PANTYEATR1]

this is how men give birth! good job, i enjoyed the series. i can't wait until i start passing with my MS tuned turbo car again

[@RyedaleAirsoft]

What an absolute weapon! Good job Greg you're an inspiration to all of us.

[@Moziza1]

Amazing! You did a great job. You are the mentor for all of boosted miatas everywhere

[@nickwild7]

Freaking love Toby he does amazing work, the whole wild family have been loyal customers for a while

[@ConGie]

Congratulations, I can't even imagine what the pulls must feel like. Good job and don't crash it!

[@MikoMuru]

Wow thats a good power to weight ratio. With all that hard work, you deserve those numbers.

[@awestphal6]

Hey Greg, im so happy for you dude. Just watching those old canyon run vids from years ago ive gone an aquired an NA8 and NB2. Love the cars, im still on basic stuff now but one day i be pullin like a bro like you. Like i daid im happy for you man, cant fake those smiles

Beauty of a little car! I hope it runs well for you for years to come.

[@miloszblonski]

Holy fuck. I watched almost every episode of b&b and rebirth. You are awesome, your movies are awesome, your miata is epic. 415whp? WTF! Well done sir.

[@eddarell9474]

Bro!!! Wow 😲 Those numbers are amazing but the effort you put in to the build is there as well. Amazing job!! Congrats on your hard laborious work and effort!! GAINS!! 🚗💥💨

[@patriksabo1141]

Congratulations Greg! I'm just speechless... Well done!

[@forbiessedits1541]

Greg I love these videos so much it's taught me a lot. I was going to get a miata I talked of long ago, and I still plan to one day, however I couldn't find one clean enough. I want it perfect. So I ended up getting a bugeye wrx wagon and its my project car. But man I love watching your build series! And it's really making me push to find a beautiful miata to add a couple extra ponies to! Much love

[@MrShiver55]

Congrats Mate!!! To me, that was the most awesome Video series on this website, it helped me so much since video no1 and I am happy that everything worked out well for you. Mine won't be THAT powerful, but I am more excited and motivated than ever to get it done. Thanks for that!

[@colewhitcomb6573]

congrats my dude! smiles on my face during the entire dyno tune and pull sessions lol. love the channel.

[@HotboiEngineering]

Dude on 110 race gas you could really have a 500 HP motor. But you sir have one insane Miata. Congrats man, I hope my build will be like yours some day.

[@TheCarPassionChannel]

E85 is roughly equivalent to 105-110 octane. :)

[@jakesmook8934]

Ive been following every episode of this rebirth and I have to say you did a great job and im glad you didnt give up and you did your video the way you did so we can follow along! Cant wait to see more of this engines performance because mine next :) Thank you for your awesome content man!

[@ryanschaper6663]

Dude!!! Very nice work. That's the best feeling when your ride turns out just the way you imagined it. Now go beat on this thing so we can see it do work!!!!

[@konstantingentz3840]

Congratulations man!!! You've made it! Proud of you and the Car!

[@alejandrodacosta3814]

¡Congratulations Greg! Now you should start developing the aero... Improving airflow under de car goes a long way. Nothing too crazy, just an undertray and a long but discrete diffuser. Well done, enjoy your beast.

[@aaronmachado2957]

Awesome numbers Greg. Can't wait for what you have in store from now on.

[@AlexLifts1210]

Im a bit late to the party but i Watched every video from start to finish over the past few days and all I can say is well done!
