Paul, you retard, you didn't need all that badass shit to make 300whp on a 99 motor.

two and a half actually. hehe
When I finally get out of this condo and into my new house I'll be able to start cranking them out, hopefully mid november. Maybe even do a Jig for the DP and exhaust. ha that'd be the day. I did get two 220VAC 50amp outlets installed in the garage![](https://www.miataturbo.net/images/smilies/smile.gif)

anyone notice this thread is broken when you click on the last page? It currently is showing up for me as page 5 but there is a page 6. when I click on it, it comes back to the top of 5. wtf.
edit: even weirder: this post showed up immediately and was still on page 5 of 6. brokes!

One should always look at the torque per atmo per liter:
Torque / displacement (in L) / (boost+14.7) * 14.7
OR
Torque / displacement / kPa * 101
This number can NEVER go above about 72 ft-lbs per liter per atmosphere (without nitrous). (These are dynojet numbers). This calculation BTW is the same as BMEPper atmosphere (look up BMEP). BMEP is directly proportional to this number.
BTW a number that's close to 72 is a very well tuned setup. This applies to miatas, NA, FI, BMW, NASCAR, F1.
Applying this to FM's numbers, they got 83, which means the correction factor is screwed up. Assuming it's well tuned and they got 71, it means the numbers are 17% high. Applying this "reverse correction factor" to 300 hp, it means they got 255 hp from 11 psi. 8 years ago, Shiv and Scoots got 240 hp from 8 psi at sea level from a GT2560 and the old FM manifold, so it's believable.
BTW the gain is not so much a testament to the Hydra's prowess, but the Link's weakness - and the old numbers were probably screwed up. Probably a combo of bad tuning, and different conditions / dyno correction factors.
No real surprises.
BTW the new numbers are with a crank trigger?

And Paul being MIA really doesn't help me much. Guess I'm flyin solo for installing the rest. Fingers are crossed.

Ill PM you on the mob as to not hijack this thread anymore. But in short, I dont have a time frame for any of it and I have 94-97 axles. The only thing I changed powertrain wise was the 99 head.
