As far as I know nothing else was changed beyond standard rebuild parts. Same compressor and turbine housing, just bored out for a bigger compressor wheel.
And this was Oregon 92 pump gas. No plans for e85, its a pain to get around here.

Just a comp wheel upgrade, nothing else. I'd love to try e85 but really this is more power than I ever wanted and frankly more power than this Miata really needs. First track event should be in a couple weeks assuming my new suspension shows up.

Can't help but compare dyno graphs as I get more and more files from cars I've tuned.
Now that Laz is making ~310hp, I can compare it to Ed's 10ae/msm/vvt/absurdflow car that makes 320.

This graph basically illustrates the trade off of big turbo vs. small turbo. Ed's bigger turbo spools slower, which can be seen in the 3200-3700 range. But after that he's stays 10-25kpa lower and has a 30-45ft/lb advantage from 4000-5700, where I think the Honda manifold on Laz just barely starts to claw back some of the tiny turbo's disadvantage.

A few updates, shocks are on, resevoirs are mounted, corner weighted and aligned. -4 up front -2.8 out back.
Passenger seat back in, axis power hood has been mounted, just waiting to mount my gv canards and a splitter once Henry makes the bracket for it. Also has risers for the wing to put on as well.

Traction mainly, and the rear has the wing to keep it glued down at higher speeds but I want it to rotate at lower speeds. I'm going to do some testing and see, might go to 3 degrees in the back.
Car will get a full respray, but for now I kinda dig the ridiculous yellow hood
