Default My ls6 miata vs. a 300zxtt

http://videos.streetfire.net/video/9...ata_163123.htm


I guess it is time to up the power. I have a ls6 383 with a tr224 114 cam. I wasn't running premium (had regular in it for the trip I took earlier that day.), should have since it was tuned for it. A great run with the 300zxtt. He was running 23psi of boost with 100 octane and aftermarket turbos and intercoolers with the supporting mods. The first run he didn't post. Put a car on him out the gate. This run was his best run. I let him get on it first, which allowed him to get into boost quicker. On the top side he did start to pull me. I let out due to road conditions ahead, but if it was flat and clear would of stayed in it. Strong car! Best race since I did this conversion......now time for a power adder!!!!!!!

Do a 100 shot on it. Easiest and cheapest way to see a huge difference in your light little car. Sweet setup btw!

I didn't know you could fit an LS in a miata. I would have thought the valve covers would smack into the strut towers before you could get everything tightened up. Can't watch the vid at work, but that's a nice little car you got there.
