    Where's the Mazda tab ?

    So, I put the battery tender on my MX-5 today. When it gets charged up and the roads clear off a little, I'll prolly drive it to the winery.

    This should be the "Anti thedak's GTR thread" thread.

    I bought this car in July, 2013. I put a drop-in K&N filter in it and changed the oil exactly once. I have done nothing else except drive it.

    I don't think. This is in "other foreign". You'll have to put yours in "Merican truck" section.

    Anyway, I'm going to throw this link up for a s/c for my car... https://www.flyinmiata.com/flyin-mia...er-system.html

    That is it. I've been looking at this kit for 2 years and I'll probably never buy it... unlike Dak who would put the link up and say he was thinking about it, then post installed pics tomorrow morning at 3:58AM. LOL !

    That's because the x and y axis are different. The vertical one is Pearl and the horizontal is Necklace.

    Listen guys, I took this thing to Mid-Ohio this afternoon and ran the track record, but nobody was there to see it and my cat, Mr. Whiskers hid my GoPro again.

    Your ET / MPH computed from your vehicle weight of 2650 pounds and HP of 381 is 11.12 seconds and MPH of 121.55 MPH.

    Well, looky there, I don't even have to go to the track. Saved a bunch of time, gas and money. :lmao:

    You can run 7's without going to the track, just GIS some time slips. and voila you're in the 7's

    after some more quick math on this magic website: http://www.wallaceracing.com/et-hp-mph.php

    it appears i would need 1,026whp or at 381whp the car would have to weigh 950lbs... to get a 7.99.

    after re-reading that seems like the hp goal would be cheaper and easier than the weight-reduction goal... if that would even be possible. hp is always possible.

    apparently, i'll s/c this LS3 tonight and after strapping it to the dyno again and only coming up with 750rwhp, i'll tear that off and twin-turbo it with some wimpy little turbos, then re-do that set-up... i'll report back in a few hours. LOL!

    You are going about this the hard way. All you need is an Atco track rental in late January.
