      The rotors were just coasted in plastic/rubber to help them actually seal. It was meant to do basically this at that price, work for a moment.

    A good cheap swap for a Miata could be a supercharged 3800 out of a Pontiac gtp or something, it’s a factory supercharged v6 pushing around 300 stock I believe. Feels great in a Miata, my buddy did the same swap and it’s like a mini hellcat

    It looks to be spinning the wrong way, It’s spinning clockwise and pumping air out the bottom where the air intake is. I’m amazed it ran like that. If you were to make boost anyway you would have blown out all the engine gaskets with the crank case ventilation tube connected to the pressurized side of the intake anyway. It would be cool to see another go at this, I bet it would be successful 😁
