1) getting a slightly improved intake manifold, like the square top 2) getting a cold air intake or cowl induction or whatever you like (just make sure its ambient air) |
Guys quoted me a reasonable $250 - $350 for the tune. They charge $100/hr for the dyno. I don't need to waste too much money trying to squeeze out every last HP. The real goal is to build myself a turbo next winter. I want one of those Sexy Absurdflow headers!
Because I plan to turbo next year, I was thinking to not waste the money on a CIA. BTW, I bought that heat wrap you suggested. $14.00! |

The Results

ThirdGen was correct. I pulled 109.1 HP and about 118. Attached are the final results.
https://www.miataforumz.com/attachme...4&d=1325808073 The place was really cool. They are actually a prorating team that has a speedshop on the side. They race vetoes and have developed entire carbon fiber bodies for their race cars. While they setup my Miata Ray gave me a tour. It's a real nice looking place and the guys were really cool. Had a custom viper being built for the track, a Cadillic CTS-V being completely gutted, caged, rebuilt, two Spec Miatas, and tons of Vettes. They charge $150 for a baseline, then $100 for additional dyno time. Located in Licolnshire, IL http://www.blackdogracing.net/ They are taking out the LS7s in some of these vetoes and swapping in custom 800 HP beasts. I asked that any EXTRA LSX they have laying around that they give to me next time :) |

I might do that for shits and giggles soon after I get my leakdown done. BTW, an exhaust+Intake will really spice things up for you, especially with the MSM cam to take advantage. |
Haha, I did read it wrong.

Now that you have your baseline, what are your plans?
I never baselined mine, but my last dyno was 225whp/209wtq. That was on about 12psi with MS2 standalone. Night and day compared to stock...hell, night and day compared to 7psi with a voo-doo box! I thought that at 225whp on that cold day out, that was ripped like never before. I'd like to see around 250whp with a larger turbo and less boost before I call it quits on tinkering with my car. |
This winter I'm picking up from last winter's build and I'm finishing off the additional chassis stiffening, additional safety items, and heat mitigation parts of the build. This includes things like taking out the A/C, installing some frog arms, door bars, coolant reroute, header wrap, 01 Header, new exhaust (probably roadster sport), adjustable cam gear, new clutch, oil cooler. Finally, I'll top it off with the MS3 which is the reason I went and got the dyno baseline.
Then, this summer I'll begin gathering parts for my turbo build. That also gives me another year at the track pushing the limits of the maita as while still N/A. The only thing I know I am going to do with the Turbo is make my own and try to get one of those Ram Horn Absurd Flow setups with VBands and Icconol studs with big ass FMIC. |
next time have them scale the hp and tq the same :)
|
That's a configurable option? I'll make sure to ask them next time, because it is annoying.
