Miata Supercharger (First Startup)

[katanamast279]

How much did the kit cost you?

[monstermiataman]

should have gone with the fast forward supercharger its cool side mounted weighs 18 pounds less than most

[danems6]

car still going strong speedshifter?

[speedshifter326]

@danems6 yeah sure is. Hasn't gotten alot of use though since I am at college and it stays at home. May be going up for sale soon.

[danems6]

@speedshifter326

just curious... how much does something like this go for (meaning yours as is, used)? thanks for the reply.

[speedshifter326]

@danems6 probably list for around 15K

[speedshifter326]

@danems6 26K miles

[Georgenfla]

NICE CAR MAN! Sounds excellent.

[speedshifter326]

thanks!

[sulken2000]

congrats on the hate, you're pathetic ass owns what? if it's a shitty FWD honda, i'll have to call you a fag.

[ricekilla222]

Do you get supercharged cocks in your ass when you drive your supercharged miata down the street?

[CBRuRedE]

Hey shitpilla222, what does ur sorry ass

drive. Oh wait, don't tell me........A fucking Toyota ECHO!

[CBRuRedE]

No, it's worse....he drives a 4 door ECHO!

[monstermiataman]

@CBRuRedE nope not even that its a five door ford aspire them ECHOs are to high end for him

[DaleJr2010]

What kind of supercharger is it? Kenne Bell? Paxton?

[badassxr50r]

eaton. its either a mp62 or mp45

[shenning66]

strange sound in idle - i´ve the same at my supercharged miata.

have you solved the problem?

grettings from germany

[smokemare]

Hmmm, nice... 1.8i I take it? What else did you do the engine and what BHP do you get now?

[TAEnvy]

Stock internals and it makes like a billion horsepower

[xstr33tr4cerx]

@TAEnvy yah that's funny cause it's only a supercharger

[speedshifter326]

haha i was just looking at miata videos and clicked on this cuz it looked cool. Turns out its my car lol. Yeah its the MP62 with 10 pounds of boost on stock internals.

[TAEnvy]

Your a liar, thats my car. AHAHAH.

Its still slow

[sr1710nx]

sounds great

[leotmobile]

Does the engine suffer the same way when you go for a supercharger instead of a turbo? Do you have to change internals when using S.C. ? thx

[02blazinNB]

Turbo's are constantly putting the engine under boost where as superchargers only create boost under acceleration. If you run more than 8psi on your supercharger you should replace your internals since you are at higher odds of having a engine problem. I have a friend who runs 14 psi on his turbo miata with stock internals. biggest thing make sure you have it tuned right thats where problems start.

[leotmobile]

So a S.C. under 7psi will be fine? how much?

[02blazinNB]

Yes, if you run the S.C. at its original boost setting; stock setting is usualy 5-6 psi. Check out moss motors for mazda, the Jackson Racing S.C. kit runs for 2,195 dollars pluss tax.

[speedshifter326]

My car is about 10.5 psi. Stock internals. It runs awesome with no issues. (my car being the one in the video)

[steveandlee]

Sorry. You're wrong. Neither a turbo nor a s/c puts the engine under boost "all the time".

Modern turbos and modern s/c's only create boost under the load of acceleration.

And where did that 8psi number come from? I've got 10.5psi on my stock internals (soon to be 12) and it's perfectly safe.

[Toonie74]

You got that back to front my friend, superchargers boost permanently because they're driven by the crank. Turbo's only start to boost once the engine expells gas fast enough to create positive pressure in the intake, usually by about 2500 - 3000 rpm under acceleration. I prefer turbo's as its free power, 100% efficient, whereas a 'charger uses some of what it creates because of the extra load on the crank. Whichever you use, regular dyno's and lots of guages will keep your pockets healthy!

[stryfe420]

You are correct that a turbo has a higher efficiency than a supercharger because the supercharger is driven by the crank. However, the engine still has to drive the turbo by pushing exhaust gases through it which takes more power than just pushing them out your exhaust pipe does.

Also if you're talking purely about efficiency then you have to take into account friction within the device. In practice a supercharger is roughly 70% efficient while a turbo is about 80-85%.

[TAEnvy]

dont forget turbine efficiency.

The new rotrex supercharger is a very nice unit.

[contro]

I cummed! Can't wait to get my supercharger.

[02blazinNB]

That car sounds great, I hope my 2002 miata sounds that good when i get my mp45 SC and trackdog intercooler!!!!

[TAEnvy]

This is a buddies car and I think its an M62

[Teamplur]

F'in magnificent sound! love it!

check out my miata in my videos if ya care to,

good luck and happy tuning!

[iamwutiam]

+1 on sound

[DADShadowFox]

that sounds amazing
