Turbocharging my Miata on the cheap!

[@bryduhbikeguy]

That's going to help with the 'get up to highway speeds' pretty well.You can grind the inner lip smoother, on the manifold,for quicker airflow into the turbo without that interference.Also a duct into the turbo from the grill area will keep you from sucking in the hot engine air.Have fun!

If he does that also make the compression ratio lower that way you can raise the boost even more!!! (Making the compression chamber larger)

Don't forget to get that flange on a belt sander, I guarantee it will have warped from the heat after welding, it might be worth doing the head flange while you're there too :) keep up the good work and your welding skills are amazing, especially for your age!

I want to do the same thing with my geo tracker!!

[@TurbochargedHobbies]

I'm excited to see you get this all together

[@collinhaines5935]

Even tho you won’t be running high boost don’t forget to bead roll your piping

[@cliffpalermo]

Kyle boosted lifestyle uses those channel locks not a bad idea

[@DrewEdwardBacklas]

You can squish that 2.5” pipe into an oval and it won’t cause near the flow restriction as necking down to 2”

I did something similar with an old e30 over a decade ago used a vortex fmu rrfpr and slightly larger injectors plus a chip with agressive spark timing and cooler plugs. Ran on the rich side at idle and pulled like a beast. Another way to get around stand alone fuel injection, even though I did do mega squirt wich allows for agressive changes but is expensive

Look into oval tubing or pipe for tighter spots without giving up flow.

I wish I had something done to my Dodge ram it's extremely hard on gas about ten miles a gallon.. very good video my friend take care and God bless you my friend 🙏

Power Tour is in your neck of the woods this year. Either the Miata or your souped up crumbwagon (what I call minivans) would be fun for that.....jes thinkin'....

[@notimegarage8632]

Take the front bumper off and route the intercooler down and through the front, weld all the piping together and you'll have a nice set up! This things gonna be sick!

[@rncboy2]

Definitely need to pull the exhaust housing off the turbo and open it up the your adapter that way the turbo can spool up a bit faster and flow better into the exhaust housing. It will help with power and response. As most don't think or know to do this.

[@jonathanmaxwell8183]

You should have just ovaled the 2 1/2 inch pipe where it got tight to the rad and hood and there are cheaper routes for tuning a miata just takes time to find the alternatives I forget the names of them it's been so long since I did my build

[@nathanromain8821]

🔥🔥

[@HellDraGO]

For the Algo...

[@tassiejeeper01]

Instead of adapting the pipe to 2" to clear the hood id oval the 2.5" ull get the same flow and clear the hood.

[@dealerssoffers]

How did you learn to weld

[@vasilysgarage]

Through dad and just practice

[@Roscoesadie]

Do it for Dale

[@NinetySix_95]

Can you use oval shaped pipes so the hood can close but still get good flow?

[@vasilysgarage]

I read that they tried, but they would have to be 5" wide to get the same volume

[@madbroindustries]

The tubing wont hold up well with higher psi.
