  • James talks us through every single modification on his raucous 1994 Mazda MX-5 Miata. Sporting our first ever built engine and first set of 640cc injectors, many BOFI Racing products were developed on this glorious machine. Eating excessive amounts of launch control and flat shift for breakfast, there is nothing that our EFR 6258 powered MX-5 cannot take.

    • @JJTemp82748
      @JJTemp82748 4 года назад +1

      The crank has also been balanced with the flywheel and pressure plate as a rotating assembly. This is standard practice for all our inline 4 builds. In this engines case, the big and little ends, bolts, pistons, ring packs, pins and locks were also balanced to 0.1g. That way the rotating assembly is as balanced as possible while remaining on a reasonable budget. The result is a lovely smooth engine that takes abuse continuously without hiccup - 2 or so years in and I still very rarely let it warm up before pinning the throttle, it loves it. 😁
