Re: MX5 Project

Nice project. Those things are a blast to drive. I got to drive one on 8lbs of boost, a guy traded it in when I used to work at the dealership.

Re: MX5 Project

Yeah, you need to quit playing with cars, man up, and start playing MW3. lulz. I actually think Black Ops was more fun to play.

Re: MX5 Project

Are you doing all the work yourself?

Why high compression? Go low and increase the boost. Miatas are fun cars.

Would make it a dog off the line and laggy down low. Mid To higher CR with low boost keeps a broader power band, which is what he'd want for autox. Big boost and lower CR would be better for straight line.
