    I am a former NC MX5 owner. It is the only generation of Miata that I fit in well (6'5" tall). I installed a TDR GT3071R turbo kit on my 2012 MX5 in 2016 or so. At 13 psi it made close to 300 horsepower at the wheels and was a riot to drive. Honestly though, it was a handful and maybe a bit too much for the street. It would light up the tires at 40 MPH in second or third gear and ran a 4th gear 60-100 MPH time of 5.4 seconds. I ended up selling it because of concerns with the quality of the kit and the fact that it wasn't emissions legal, even though I did run a cat in the midpipe. I am tempted to build another with this kit because of the CARB certification and FM's reputation for quality kits with good customer service. 8 psi should be enough to bring the excellent but underpowered NC to life nicely.

    Seems like moving the battery to the trunk just makes sense. Gets it out of the now hotter engine compartment. Locates 50lbs. to the rear since 50+lbs. were added to the front thereby correcting the weight distribution. I applaud wanting it as simple as possible though, and many people should appreciate that.

    I believe many think like I do.. just want our street driver to stay reliable and be faster. I was wanting a super charger but decided no… because FM is developing this package I may be one of many that think like me… and do this.. keep plugging.. you got a winner here..the one thing that’s known is FM is thorough and self scrutinizing to a fault. If you guys put your seal of approval and mass produce this I know it’ll be a sound platform. I currently have a Catted Goodwin ceramic header and Catted helmholtz midpipe w a super Q exhaust.. Will this midpipe be suited for this package or will I only get to keep the super Q muffler(?)

    • @jnick5358
      @jnick5358 Год назад +1

      FM may give you a more expert opinion, but I think that most people would say that turboing an NC1 with that many miles is pushing it, even at only 8 psi. The good news is that 2.0 and 2.5 motors are common and inexpensive!

    • @FlyinMiataVideo
      @FlyinMiataVideo  Год назад

      Thanks! It depends on your usage. While there are no guarantees, if this is a street car where you want some extra power, and your engine is healthy, you'll probably be fine. If this is a track car that you're going to regularly push hard, the likelihood for failure goes up quite a bit.

    As an NC 1 owner, I'm gonna either consider a wrecker's engine from an NC 2 or later, or get that crank and do mine up. However, I believe there are benefits to doing your own engine. Since you're in there, there's an opportunity to forge the entire engine and do proper maintenance, if your pockets are deep enough.

    • @FlyinMiataVideo

      Sucks, missing out on sale for no reason. You selling some piping and intercooler with injectors won’t get you in trouble with the EPA. Especially when the parts providing are designed for me to use my own original cat…. I also have a 3071r I have sitting on the shelf for a built 2.5 and can’t buy your kit now because you won’t sell it to me without the turbo. No good for either party.

  • @dankvr4018
    @dankvr4018 Год назад

    For a not inexpensive turbo kit - mid 200s is pretty conservative HP. For CARB legality I assume that is factored into the mid 200s goal. My questions are:
    1. Will the kit support a higher HP level if tuned with an aftermarket ECU/turn the boost up?
    2. What is the maximum HP the kit is theoretically capable of producing with aftermarket ECU tune/more boost?
    3. Will the manifold/outlet support a larger garret turbo?
    4. Is there a path to 400+whp?
    Thanks!

    • @FlyinMiataVideo
      @FlyinMiataVideo  Год назад

      We are guessing at hp numbers until we can get the kit fully tested and dyno'd. As with any turbo kit, supporting mods such as fuel will dictate what you can get, and a good tune will maximize the performance. Our focus will be 50-state-legal carb approved kits, so we won't be testing after market ECU support or going for big horsepower numbers, but we're sure there will be others using the kit as a base for more in-depth builds.

  • @Huzz00
    @Huzz00 Год назад

    Interested if you considered the RHD at all. There is an AC liquid line running through the area of the turbo intake pipe, the steering shaft and also the ABS unit. Also the washer bottle can't go where you put it as the brakes are there in RHD.

    • @FlyinMiataVideo
      @FlyinMiataVideo  Год назад

      We've considered RHD, but it's unlikely to fit. The area around the turbo is very dense, and from what we can tell, the clutch master cylinder will interfere with the turbo outlet. Ironically, this means it's more likely to fit with an automatic than a manual, but there may be other issues we're unaware of, such as the AC line you mention.

  • @Kiddingmez32
    @Kiddingmez32 Год назад

    This is very exciting. Thank you for developing this kit. I was mid way through installing a EFR kit which is very nice but ultimately decided I wanted a CARB legal kit for peace of mind.
    My two concerns are:
    -With the CARB cert requiring the use of a welded in stock catalytic converter, what will we do if/when these catalytic converters fail and become hard to obtain? Wouldn’t it be wiser to build the kit with a CARB legal aftermarket catalytic converter like Magnaflow header?
    -How is the oil sourced and returned to the block?
    Again, very excited. Will be purchasing.

    • @TheCorington
      @TheCorington Год назад

      Not FM, but as mentioned in the video, it would be very easy to have someone fabricate a downpipe and swap over to the oem manifold for smog.
      They also sell the cat as mentioned in the video if you do not want to cut into your stock exhaust manifold. The magnaflow header is expensive and only would add to costs.
      Oil would most likely be returned to the block via a drill/tap in the oil pan like every other turbo kit on the market.

    • @Kiddingmez32

      @@Kiddingmez32 13:45, apologies I have been watching too many na/nb videos. Most oil taps are on the side of the block, right under the 2.0, 2.5L casting on the engine.

    • @FlyinMiataVideo
      @FlyinMiataVideo  Год назад +1

      Good questions, thanks.
      - For the catalytic converter, the stock one is the cleanest and will likely be around for a long time. Plus, as @TheCorington mentioned, the other CARB-legal options are surprisingly expensive, even more than the stock part. If the stock cat does ultimately disappear, we'll find a suitable replacement and design a "top" that matches it. You'll be able to get the kit with either just the top (that you'll need to weld onto the stock cat) or a new and complete assembly ready to bolt in.
      - We have some ideas on oil supply and return, but we're currently finalizing them. Our current plan should be very easy, we just need to make sure it will work well.

      Thanks! Since the 2.5 swap isn't emissions compliant, we won't be directly supporting it and won't be testing with it. However, as long as the top of your 2.5 is in the same place as the 2.0 (e.g., you're using drop mounts), it should physically fit. From there, it's up to you.
