Turbo Miata does wheelie in 2nd gear

[325window]

I'll bet the chick driving was a little shook up after that one...good to see more girls getting involved in racing. It was a girl right?

[69bakedskater]

the power to weight ratio of a turbo miata is crazy. my friend has a twin turbo pushing about 230+ hp and witht the car being so light the hp equals about 500

[The1320Addiction]

@69bakedskater

that doesnt make sense at all

[69bakedskater]

@The1320Addiction basically its faster since it is lighter.

[The1320Addiction]

@69bakedskater

i know what power to weight ratio is.

but just because its lighter than most cars doesnt mean its hp doubles

[mageac]

@69bakedskater ... if it weight about a pound the hp still equals about 230...

and it would get killed by a 3500 pound 500 hp car... easily...

[saisayasith]

@mageac quit being a benchmark fag... I bet you are a internet warrior that drives his moms minivan...

[mageac]

@saisayasith so you think taking away 500 pounds add 250 hp... good to know... your comments are much more important to me now that i know that

[KooKooKachoo29]

@mageac I know he could have said it better, but I understand what he meant. He was saying 250 hp in a Miata is like having 500 hp in other cars. I'm not saying that's true, just clarifying.

According to the dragtimes website, a Miata with 257 horsepower does a quarter-mile in about the same time as a Cadillac CTS-V with 525 hp. The Caddy may have had a horrible driver, but that doesn't mean a 12 second Miata is slow.

[monstermiataman]

That was a bit scetchy bet it scared him a little

[future62]

Is he on the stock suspension

[WhoSpraysAreYouGay]

Now thats what im talking about a badass miata and for CLCCVIDEO you claim to have a turbo flat six miata that you have done well over 180 im calling bullshit if you had such a car dont you think you would have videos of it? Maybe if video games actually depicted what cars people have but sorry not in this universe.

[squirrely911]

So let me break this down for you

Turbo Miata > Everything else

[LordDargan]

@squirrely911

it aint better than a turbo rx7

[julianelmur]

@LordDargan maybe not in your trailer park.

[redwingryders]

someone should take that speedbump out at the 90 foot mark

[brandonesterer]

you guys are funny- i hear say theres some heresey going on around here.

looks like a fun car- this moderately skilled driver is doing his best to go as fast as he can, praise mazda for thier bombproof cars. i have driven many miatas they are wonderful, if underpowered dynamic cars. for everyday use i would take a good condition stock1.6 over any other miata on the planet, monsters included.

[CLCCVIDEO]

gotta love the Miata. I got a Miata MX-5 with a turbo charged flat 6 and so far I have gotten well over 180mph

[geletmote]

thats one quick miata

[bigdaddy0228]

you must think there is a bunch of dummys watching your videos you big DUMMY. the car dont bounce up and down when you are hammered on it. car having running issues.

[lancerevoMD]

looked like it ran a high 11 to me

[inagod]

loose the stock suspension,before the motor and driveline rip out of the car.

[eatmedouche]

you're an idiot, suspension has nothing to do with the driveline and how it can "rip out of the car"

moron.

[inagod]

the suspension has everything to do about the driveline.Since you called me a idiot,for your lack of vocabulary.Moron!! take the springs and shocks out and make a pass,if the axles[front drive] driveshaft [rear drive]and any other motor mount,attachment point that can't handle the torque will,break, bend,fly apart,try it and get back to me.

[badVWbug]

It has everything to do with the drivline... Take wheel-hop for example. Poor suspension=wheel hop=broken driveline parts... without proper suspension setup for desired use, the driveline won't get power where U want it and/or will cause a great deal of stress on the driveline.

[VinnyTime]

the suspension has a lot to do with the way a car goes down the track and how it puts its power down.

[Geez0404]

Too Much Boost.

[apancher]

no such thing....only not enough traction

[highPSIsled]

This is heresay

[psychoninja911]

Isn't is spelled "hearsay"?

Good video.

Hate seeing people light up slicks. Especially when it's a good chance they're going to win anyway. I'm told it doesn't affect your track times THAT much.

[tearlejc1]

Slicks are soft compound and work best at an elevated temperature, which is what burnouts are for...they DO effect times if you spin tyres with no traction...

[JD0x0]

@tearlejc1 +1 and for anyone interested. Street tires are pretty much the opposite. When they heat up instead of getting sticky they get almost greasy so dont try this on street tires, you'll ruin them and your times.

[JesseCyrussHarlow]

he meant heresy like blaspehmy

[SHP4121]

what kind of axles do you have?

[sdc1213]

Looks like stock soft suspension with too much torque.

[0wnage1111]

wtf is this BOV at the start when the burn finishes ? i wanna know what bov is it

[xmechman93x]

you have GOT to be kidding me...

[Khoailan]

its not a BOV sound u NOOB

[eatmedouche]

its called a backfire you stupid fucking moron

[4ndyh3inrich]

talk about whiplashing your neck. That's gonna be sore tommorow! Unless he had his head pushed against the headrest, in which case is just plain fun.

[andreas04]

can anyone hear that little whine down from the wastegate. would anyone know how to create that ?

[the13joker]

if you are refering to the sound after he does the burnout? i think its the Blow of valve that sounds like that. later dude.

[Stickman53fe]

It's the bypass valve. It will make that noise if it vents into the atmosphere. My turbo Mustang has a blow through mass air meter so the air from the bypass valve goes right back into the intake so I don't have that noise. Before when I had a draw through system, the bypass valve made a lot of noise. Most people liked it, but I didn't.

[cuttie100]

haha kind of look funny the way the front bounced up and down like that

[shizzzleboo]

that doesnt look like a wheelie to me, he almost stalled it cuz he dropped the clutch and he rode the gas pedal to safety

[forry90]

agree +1

[irocksyoursocks]

I'd be scared to drive that thing at WOT. that small of a car lifting the front...

[ashpet14]

yeahHAHA

[Robiej56]

that was not a turbo'd miata. I believe its a monster miata(miata with a v8) I could be wrong.

[JgHaverty]

you are correct.

[ivaniclixx]

Poor car, then; It's not a Miata anymore.

[Treycq]

correction, its just not ***GAY*** anymore.

[ivaniclixx]

You have obviously never driven an MX5.

[Treycq]

yes i have. My g/f owns one, a stock 1.8 manual, slower than a dead snail. And I own a 92 miata with a 5.0 conversion which makes the car actually a lot of fun.

[ivaniclixx]

Sorry, but I don't trust _anything_ :).

[Triple88a]

you must be one of the straight line is best freaks. Straight line is not where the miatas shine dude. Thats why you dont find them fun.

[jrhager84]

Watching JgHaverty 94miata and lazzer408 go at it makes me ashamed to be a miata driver.. Grow up children...

[94miata]

Dude!?!? Are you fucking serious? All I said was the only turbo kit that I have seen for only the 1.6L is the greddy. How is that arguing or "going at it". It was just a statement...

[jrhager84]

There *are* other videos on youtube with you 3 bickering about. I'd link, but I'm too tired tonight... You know damn well what I'm talking about...

[94miata]

Looks like that you like to bicker as well...

[jrhager84]

How so? By pointing out that you children have been going at it on numerous videos? Grow up dude....seriously.

[JgHaverty]

You post crap up like this, and have nerve to call us children...

And what the hell does maturity level have to do with the car you own? Ill tell you what, when the Government trusts you to operate a nuclear reactor on a carrier, then you can tell me to grow. Until then, you have some catching up to do...

"grow up child"...

[desijigga786]

C5/C6 trans? How would you get that on a Miata?

[JgHaverty]

put an ls1 in your car...

btw its called a t56

lazzer408 is probably lying, if hes not hes got a LOT of work to do, and a LOT of money to spend. His car should be ready in about 2 years.

[lazzer408]

Mine is being built for 500hp. T4 Garret, Tbird rear end, C5 trans (maybe C6), and a lot of praying while in the drivers seat. Currently 250rwhp on a diy t3(saab)/t4(international harvester) turbo and Evo 6 fmic.

[siRGvtec]

hahaha that shit looks funny. it just ate that pavement and ran off.

[DECIMATOR76]

hey dude get some wheel bars to stay steady or you're gonna backflip! by the way sweet run!!

[shutokoupro]

Another reason some keep the 1.6L is because they're more free revving, but that's a circuit thing, you wouldn't understand lol

[Jmartin2683]

a flyin miata 2 liter stroker engine will rev 8000+rpm with longer stroke than a 1.8. an internally stock 1.8 has roughly the same rev cieling as a 1.6, at around 7500rpm. you can push it to 8000, if you want to take the chance.

[blackjackwabam]

the only reason why 1.6L miata are popular is because they have more turbo kits available for them...to turbo a 1.8L would juss take alittle more effort to get all the components..so don't ever swap out a 1.8 for a 1.6...that'll be juss plain stupid!

[94miata]

Only turbo kit I have seen for the 1.6L that you couldn't get for the 1.8L as well was the cheap greddy kit.

[masterofice]

HOLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

[The1ne07]

HOLY CRAP!!

[crash41301]

FYI guys, this is a built 1.8L with a turbo. Home built too, no shops involved :-)

[smd4life]

wouldn't have came off the ground if he didn't let off

[fiesta2liteproject]

DIY? And That Power?

Respect, 'nuff said!

[JgHaverty]

get some suspension in there man, you are going to destroy your car if you keep that up.

[ahammerdoggirl]

@crash41301 NICE!

[paiunit]

1000000000000HP :)

[mx5rush]

This video is a great example of why so many killer HP turbo miata's say 1st gear is just about useless! Many of them change the 4.30 or 4.10 rear for a 3.90 rear out of the 6 speed cars. I just changed from a 4.30 to a 4.10, though I don't have near the HP to really benefit from it.

[Jmartin2683]

i have a basically stock (just exhaust, intake, more boost) msm and 1st is even useless in that. it of course has the 4.10 torsen rear end. it's even worse with the msm's 6500rpm redline.

[CrybabyJoeE]

Check out the shop online! Racingmazda

[Triple88a]

too bad those guys never answer man. There are plenty of stories about them taking the money, not returning calls, nor shipping the product.

[CrybabyJoeE]

I have the Tec3 engine management system, redlines at 8000, 550 fuel injectors and fuel rail, light flywheel, ACT clutch that can hold 400hp. car weights 2175 with me in it(I weight close to 145lbs).On 5lbs of boost got me a 13.6 on drag radials(slicks will have less times). I just put in a LSD differential and i should get better launch on track. It should go less than 13.6 on 5lbs and 11.2 on 25lbs.

[CrybabyJoeE]

thats not true. A 1.6L can make power just as well. I have a 94 miata and took out the 1.8L and put in a 1.6L and turbocharged it on stock internals. A big T3 turbo purduce 25lbs of boost on a dyno made 334hp to the wheel and ran me a 11.2 1/4 mile.

[ShinaKitsune]

I'm pretty sure is the 1.8 not much aftermarket stuff for the 1.6 in the US anymore, since after 94 all miatas had the 1.8

[mfuji01]

HOW MUCH HP ARE 1.8'S CAPABLE OF?

[ShinaKitsune]

about 300hp with the right turbo and fuel setup i assume. the 1.6 is around 220hp.

Could also just be a 5.0 swap as well.

[mfuji01]

thank's i'm gonna shop 4 a 1.8, i hear snap cracle & pop n' i don't think it's a v8.

[ShinaKitsune]

Cool, hope ya find a good one for ya.

[ninjagod1337]

Easily 400-500hp.

A guy made more than 600rwhp running 27.5psi on a 2.0l stroker.

[vvillie]

hahaha nice

[pdiz]

Holy !@#$!! What was his time?! Is this the 1.6L engine?
