what sort of BOV is that? if its adjustable, you should do something with it, its fluttering.

great that it runs though !! :-)

nice intercooler too. perfect for a b6t i'd say.

Yeah major compressor surging. I had some problems getting a recirc hose so I came up with the bright idea to use a bicycle inner tube. It didnt work and sounded like a cow.

Today I cut some hose off a shop-vac and modified the tune, installed and gapped some colder plugs. Bout to take her for another spin.

first part made me go "thats a really good idea", second part made me LOL big time. "+1" on the vids, but tune it first, we dont want a dead miata. too good a car for that.

goddamnit. I had an appointment today with a guy to use his lift to install my new clutch and he had to reschedule.

Went out and tried to get a rough street tune and the clutch is slipping like a ****. Hopefully next weekend I'll get the clutch installed which will lead to vids worth a ****.

In the meantime, I'll get my WB02 datalogging with the F/IC to make tuning 10x faster and finish the exhaust.

Vacuum cleaner hose (don't go hacking up your mom's now lol) works awesome for recirculating a bov because it doesn't crease when you bend it. Nice IC pipe over the radiator lol. Are you going to cut the hood or is there room?

I had to cut some of the underside of the hood. Can't tell when it's closed.
