This guy says he has a Mx5 1.6L running 2 T4s, and his running 10.9 sec quarter mile can someone please confirm with me that his talking a load of f*kN shit, his got nothing to show but a picture of one small looking turbo and one Hks air pod attched to it. He doesnt even have 2 air pods. he recons the other turbo is mounted underneith the other turbo "who the f**k mounts a turbo directley underneith the other one lol but then also where the f**k is the other air pod, and he doesnt even bring up that he has any other mods other then a intercooler the engine looks pretty standard other then the turbo. Ive stopped talking to him and asked him to bring the car to me untill then i dont belive him, since then he made excuses and said yeh he will bring it , but then stopped talking about it since. LOL , how fast is the fastest Mx5 anyway let alone a 1.6l version. Ive already talked to mates at a few tuning garages and they also confirmed his talking ALOT of shit, his one of those guys that talks it up and thinks people would belive him.

The only logical way to make a mx5 go fast is to put a 12a in it .. Mazda rotary mounts and direct drop. Honestly why would anyone bother turboing a n/a or twin turboing a single turbo?

Simple ask him what speed he ran if its under 116 which is like a 12.5 then hes full of shit

well you could have two very small t4'z (its only a flange) but even still its unlikely to do much on a 1.6. as said, get pics up

is it still a 1.6 or motor swap maybe? there are a couple of rotors running around....

learnt to drive in a 1.8 mx5.

sweet little car to drive. to date is still the best handling car i have driven stock. its pretty zippy too. but not powerful.

as for the twin turbo setup. seems like a f**kwit. have a look in the interior. look for some form of engine management..

erm google the bullet mx5 conversion

thats a serious car!

weapon of a car, but hardly an MX5, its a full custom chassis with a fibreglass shell that looks like an MX5. have you seen the first prototype they did? the 13B one? that looks like a bit of fun too

      OEM Soko: Japanese business supplying Automotive items from Japan - Freebie inside!

      We have some genuine Japanese legally decommissioned car number plates now in stock 🙂 Add some legitimately obtained JDM style to your Skyline or other Japanese model, or simply as a garage/man cave decoration! About the 40mm hole: The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure & Transport in Japan recognised the popularity of keeping decommissioned plates among car enthusiasts and came up with a method to "destroy" (or render them unusable for street use) while still retaining their collectable/usable value for display etc.  We have 40mm hole covers available to cover the hole nicely with a Sakura motif, which are also available in white in (very!) limited quantities, however they frequently sell out. Please let me know if you're wanting one or more of these and I'll check availability. The Sakura motif covers are more common. https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-decommissioned-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-set-su-7515 https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-decommissioned-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-set https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-400mm-hole-cover *Please note that we can't obtain particular number or area name (eg: "Gunma 500 Fu ・86") if requested. All plates are provided as they become available after decommissioning.

      Ah, fair enough. For the IAT, I'm using a legit GM sensor that was used on the car prior to my current build. I'll get another wideband and IAT ordered and follow up when they show up. Thanks for the help.

      You shouldn't need to massively fatten up the mixtures for cold conditions. For one thing - 0°C is not that cold. For another, the Haltech will be using the IAT sensor to tell it how dense the air air, and calculate the correct amount of fuelling. Then the cold start enrichment is added as a % on top of that, so it should scale with the main fuelling. You might also doubt the IAT sensor at this time. You're not using one from an RB26 are you? Using a nice Bosch sensor or similar? Happens. Some wideband units take great pleasure in killing their sensors. Put another wideband in the tailpipe and compare. Or just swap the sensor to a brand new one and see.

      Oh, my misunderstand. When the car was running, it sounded ok, but if I gave it any gas it wanted to die but caught itself afterwards. It's very different from how it was a couple months ago when it was warmer outside. The logs show that the AFRs are better during, what I assume, is warmup enrichment. Because it's cold, and air is more dense, should I work on the enrichment bit?
