This should be a sticky on every Miata forum...

[loganalbritton]

Honestly, don't know what I'd do without you dad. so many important life lessons in one video :')

[henry]

It would be great if you redid this video as the options have massively changed both in availability (some of these don’t exist anymore), in offerings (some have upgraded), and also in pricing - flyin’ miata is double now.

I don’t even have a Miata and I instantly saved this video

Greg, I just wanted to say thank you because I am about to go turbo this summer for my NB and I'm new to the Miata life. This is a massive help, thanks man!

[iTzxNooBs]

Can't turbo my NA until I'm out of dental school but wow, you are awesome! You're the reason I bought a Miata 3 years ago and you still continue to be the Miata GOAT! Thanks again Greg

[thefunbuns]

I don’t have a miata or a turbo or a piston engine at all but i’m still about to watch this whole video. love you greg 💕

[MRTuning]

Even if you don’t build Miatas your videos are good for just basic knowledge on building boosted cars


I feel like you leave that out!
I just enjoy the content 👌

The holy bible of turboing miatas is here. Awesome job. 
Also, wouldn't be a bad thing to add a small side note at the end, regarding the extra cost beyond 250-300whp and a short list of what needs to be done. Built engine, additional cooling, trans swap, ignition & fuel upgrades etc.

Saving this video for hopefully one year from now!

[jonathanlam]

Dang, my flyin miata turbo kit must be incomplete without that ballcock shank washer

[HyperspeedMedia]

I have Kraken turbo kit @ 18psi.. for 2 years... never been happier...

[Beeb_Beeb_Im_a_Jeep]

Long story short. I was born as a Jeep but i always wanted to be a turbocharged miata. Thanks for the video now i know what i have to buy.

[kylehopkins]

For anyone who is wondering about the mazdaspeed turbo setup. I’m currently running it with the FM intake, adaptronic ecu, 420cc injectors, and straight pipe. Car is sitting on 15psi and it does the job. But with this setup you won’t be getting anywhere close to the 250hp range. I recommend just doing a different setup. Save ur time and money

[Triptisim]

Always knew I wanted to turbo a car but had no idea where to start, I've got a 350Z but this was so damn helpful.

[dannykim]

i dont even own a miata no more but i always enjoy your shows so educational, kudos to you brother

[cn-wc]

Kraken user here. From shipping time to actual delivery was about a week to Texas. I have his 1.8nb kit w/ a complete 3" exhaust. Extremely well made for the price. You can find GT2554r or 2560r almost everywhere for under $350.

The MKTurbo is also well known and of good quality but I hear of consistent delay issues that could are months long.

[NCMcLaren]

After watching this before I bought turbo gear and now that I’ve gone through many many engines and have found a great setup that works for me (260whp) in watching this again I can’t recommend enough please listen to this advice. He is bang on with setups. You might save yourself $100 here and there but in the end you’ll pay for the short cuts you take. Take a little longer to save and Buy a kit from a reputable brand.

Really interesting watching this again knowing what I know now. I wish I had listened more.

But you’re wrong on one thing too - don’t buy used injectors. New ones aren’t that expensive.

[VS]

bought my first NA last month, currently saving up (we all know how that goes...) for a MK full setup (minus exhaust). i only wanna make like 200 at the wheels...but while shooting exhaust flames out the hood! i am pretty stoked i managed to find a rust free 1990 with coils, wheels, swaybars, hardtop, tires, 1.8 torsen swap, and 118k miles for $3500.

Rocking REVENT Turbo kit including and IC piping for 7th year!!! Never skipped a beat. Good man who is on the market for long should definitely be in the video.
