Mark's 2004 MSM Build

I love the build so far. Keep up the good work.


I have an '05 MSM with the FM Intake kit, Corksport Exhaust, bigger intercooler, GReddy Boost Gauge, HDHCDD Rollbar, 6K lowbeams, and 3K fogs.

last yr i kept the p5 in the drive way all winter, really stunk clearing off the ice and snow each morning, now with the miata sideways at the back of the garage i can fit all three vehicles inside! i owe this thought of genius to my wife!
 
Nice! We did that once at the garage here with both P5's and my MSM... We've acquired a lot more s*** in the garage this year, and won't be possible, so I'm sending the car elsewhere to be stored. Gonna suck, but if I don't see it, I won't be tempted to take it out.
 
Nice use of space Mark. Just don't get to close.

ya, iave this piece of tape on the floor sowhen i open the door it lines up with the car and i can tell if i'm in far enough for the door to shut but not too close to the msm's drivers door! i'm going to get another wheel "chock" so i can't bump into my cah
 
so i was over at m-s.com and this member is selling his msm, good price too, anyway he spemt 3,100 in begi upgrades and pulled a 204/189 on the dynojet, am i maybe spent a 1/3 (intake, full exhaust) of that and did a 190/186...i 'm very surprised?
 
Nice looking gauge pods Mark! :D


Been busy working on the pods for those subaru specB, i might not interested in making them for the Miata at the moment, unless there is a huge interested...

yeah, but how does the torque & power curve look?? numbers don't tell the whole story. The Begi flash only gives like 14 HP more, but the curves are higher and steady

just hang a tennis ball off of the ceiling, line it up so that it bumps the windshield when you've pulled in enough.

i'll post his dyno and mine side by side, curious....

ya, ive done that in the past, only problem is ball ends up in your way when the cars pulled out and the kids love to wack it with their hands or the wiffle ball bat! home run, right out the door! ;)

Yeah...but that's also just about all you're ever going to milk out of this engine / turbo combo. BP-T's take very well to mods, but thanks to this acorn sized turbo we got, maxes out quickly.

I looked it up and there is a picture posted. They are pretty nice and smooth.
 
super smooth!
