This 175 MPH Big Turbo MX-5 Miata Makes 22 PSI On STOCK PISTONS

[@spazda_mx5]

I think my MX-5 could probably top 175 but I'd be worried about it trying to turn into an aeroplane.

[@thatblackz1850]

If its an NA with stock gearing you run out of geaar at around 130-140

[@spazda_mx5]

The box is a T56 so 6th is intergalaticly long, true top speed would probably be had in 5th.

[@andrewtempleton2407]

It’s great to see more and more 5’s getting built to their 350+ potential! I think it’s companies like BOFI that can make this achievable on a more reasonable budget than ever before. When we forged our 5 nearly 15 years ago now, if BOFI was around it would of saved a hell of lot of hassle and import tax! And although our mx is not quite the 5 it was, it was still good enough to make 365bhp on the last dyno run we did. Keep building these beasts everyone! 👍

[@onethirdmayo8556]

I’m not impressed by the 175 mph, but a miata being able to make a stop in one piece after reaching that speed.

[@FUzZhockeyboys]

Have you ever hit 90+ in a Miata?

I have watched a little bit of your video and i can say for myself, that your selfie kind of perspective is annoying. My advice: Do not film yourself, film the owner and the car. Make more close ups on the enginebay and stuff like that.

[@thefailxtreme]

I am not native english speaking and did not quite understand one part. What do you mean with seamwelded front to back?

[@GathersNoMoss]

It looks like a good setup, but there's just one thing about this build that puzzles me: If new rods have been fitted, why not fit forged pistons too? Looking on BOFI's website, they don't look prohibitively expensive, compared to the cost the other parts fitted to the car.

[@seshboisam1141]

The weak point for the Miata has always been the rods they don’t like to see more then a few psi but stock pistons have been known to hold up to 30 psi before they see detonation. If your boosting on a budget it’s common to just upgrade rods and save the extra cash for a better quality turbo kit. Upgrading the pistons is for someone looking to have that extra piece of mind it’s only a couple hundred dollars more but if your going big boost then upgrading the injectors, pistons, rods, oil pump and fuel pump is the way to go.

[@BOFIRacingTV]

The block was used with a GT2560R first, so pistons were less of a requirement back then

[@GathersNoMoss]
