Damn dude, sucks to see it go. I really enjoyed all of your videos and they helped me throughout my build. Can’t wait to see your next project, whenever you’re ready for one!
Wow, just 10 minutes ago I enjoyed your mockup video of the turbo kit, and now this. I may also rethink my plan to turbo my otherwise stock (but still fun) 1.6. It's getting harder to find unmolested examples of these early cars so perhaps I won't molest it. Happy trails brother.
Turbo is fun, don’t get me wrong, it’s an absolute blast. Mine was to the point where I was “scared” to drive it out of fear of something breaking. Don’t have to worry about that when it’s mostly stock
@@ConnorsCorner1 Agreed, I've nodded a few cars and when it didn't come from the factory that way you develop an ear (and nose) for funny noises and odors.
It's changed hands a couple of times now... Guy I sold it to only had it for 2 months, and the next owner about the same. Have no idea where its at now.
I’m sad now rip 😢 thinking twice about turbo. Might just have to enjoy it n/a which I acc don’t mind. GL with your future projects 🤝 thx a lot for all the Miata content I really enjoyed it while it lasted
Sorry this happened to you, friend. Just curious because my car is mostly stock, but why wouldn't you run with speedy efi again? I just ordered the full plug and play kit last week and I was pretty eager to install it until I saw this and heard you say that.
Nothing against the Speedy, didn’t mean for it to sound that way. I just enjoyed the car more when it was relatively stock on the stock ECU than I did when it was built engine and turbo. Stock, I beat the crap out of it and never worried. Once I doubled the power I was worrying about trans, diff, axles, engine health, heat management, brakes, etc.
@@ConnorsCorner1 In that case, I'll probably stop at the ecu tune and maybe some bolt ons. Like a lot of other guys said, after watching this video I'm starting to reconsider the turbo idea quite a bit. Again, sorry this happened, but you probably saved quite a few miatas by documenting your experience. Thank you
