Turbo NB Miata Review - Flyin' Miata or Flyin' Garbage?

[@TomBom292]

One day I want to do something like this to my 2000 NB. A turbo Miata seems like the ultimate driving fun experience and NB's are a good platform for turbocharging

[@louisolivierfortin]

The reliability comment is so accurate. I've owned a MP62 supercharged NB for ten years now. I drive it like a maniac, and all I did was change the oil every year and brake pads twice. It's honestly incredible

Love seeing the smiles when someone's a passenger in their own car ❤️

FM kit took me 3 afternoons to install for anyone wondering.

Same with my $600 ebay kit

[@PhantomShane914]

@@chappy3669 that setup is long gone. Made 280whp and 250wtq at 17psi. I've got a different car now with a built motor and a gtx3071r at 20psi

Very clean car patty! Rust free NB's are becoming rare!

[@timothycampbell495]

Seriously thinking about doing the FM turbo because my wife and I frequently road trip to Colorado. The power loss at high altitude on a naturally aspirated engine is severe, and turbo solves that problem.

[@albertmichall5732]

Where are you going in Colorado

I love patty's miata! first saw him on winding road/thetopher with this miata....pretty crazy what its come to!

Awesome video, glad I found ya. Recently bought a NB1 after actual years of looking.

They guy driving is so fucking stoned holy shit lmao

[@vetterburns1048]

I wouldn't use the word 'mis-shift', but after my Pontiac / Holden tranny slappin' I must have gotten spoiled. The manual Miata short-throw(?) is tight! I've mis-dumped into Second one too many times, now I have it wrangled, mostly. Always shiftin'! Woo-Hoo!

[@eduardorivera4100]

Absolutely great video 👍

[@richardflaherty2373]

Another great and FUN review.

[@dave11686]

If I ever buy a Miata it’ll have lots of Flyin’ Miata kit

[@iconicacans6407]

What size wheels do you have on those 205s?

Patti boi!

How much life does it take off your engine?

[@van7059]

It took a month on jack stands? Didn't he say it was a bolt on kit?

[@EatSleepHondaKseries]

Do you need a lot of tools to do it by yourself?

[@lil_woody_420]

How did you program the switch for saving fuel/making more power?

[@williamrori1274]

Megasquirt has an input for map switching. Basically, it's a switched ground so open circuit is one map, grounded is another etc.

[@lil_woody_420]

@@williamrori1274 thank you! Didn't know that

[@williamrori1274]

@@lil_woody_420 Yep, most standalones have a feature like that.

Is it possible to install the Same kit on my 1998 nb?

[@vetterburns1048]

I got myself a 2004 MAZDASPEED with the Flying Miata with the BIG-Enchilada! Driver used the word 'linear', and I agree totally! My buddy I snagged it from said, 'You WILL be shifting a lOT!' AND that's okay with me! Totally a 'drivers' CAR! Mega-Go-Cart!

[@cubegamer3905]

is this a completely stock engine internally? or do you have upgraded fuel injectors and the like

[@Jasenlovesanna]

No modification is needed to run the FM kit, though a clutch is basically needed. Base kit is limited at “180-200hp” via the injectors. The kit includes a piggyback tuner to compensate

[@lain_1262]

you ask smart questions

[@steveschmidt5574]

Ahhhh, I miss turbo!

[@zombii3459]

Does it have ac

[@JJstayfly]

Give it a first gear stop shifting early

[@EatSleepHondaKseries]

It’s a 1.8 or 1.6

[@Jobo9O9]

if in the US, 1.8. I think he said 1.8 but I could be wrong. Only EU had 1.6 NBs.

When are you going to graduate to a real sports car?
