Default Ls6 383 miata on the dyno

I am happy with my results. I know, I could of gone with a bigger cam, but the gearing is tall. And its the torque under the curve I was after. It drives very smooth and linear. I will try to post the video of my run from 2nd gear to 140 mph.

Enjoy

The one on the dyno. To hear it for one. Also the 4th gear pull is pretty tall. The one in the car on the way home is to show how smooth and quiet it is. Many people do not believe this thing exisits. Point of the video. I will get a better video of it going through the gears!!!!!

I cant imagine 423rwhp in a 2650lb car that thing must haul ***. But shouldnt it be more along the lines of 480rwhp or higher?

Yes I know a cam would make a major improvement in my out come. I had some medical issues come up and had to put my money else were. Either way I can swap cam's in the future. Just going from a 346 to a 383 and have more power everywhere and still getting great street manners isn't a bad thing. I am also running a 3.27 rear with 24.5" tall tires. The grunt I get off the bottom is pretty smooth.

Here are some of the pics. requested. My site crashed and I have to redo everything. Sorry for the poor video's and pics. More to come once I can get the time to get the site in order and someone to take video. There is a better high speed video from the dyno tuners helper who I gave a ride. 60-140mph......and a big grin on his face. I will post it once they get it loaded.

If was going for more power. A hidden kit is what I would do. The bottom end is set up some abuse.
