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

      Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
