Oh yeah, it feels insane in 2nd and then about as fast as my S4 with E30+meth in 3rd. I'll probably do some Dragy pulls soon to compare for curiosities sake haha.
Did a 60-100 today, honestly pretty shocked:
Also yet another 0-60 for good measure. Don't have boost by gear setup yet so def has more in the 0-60. This is completely blowing off the tires in 1st. Miata on the left, Speed on the right.

If only Mazda would make a real Mazdaspeed Miata
If only they'd make a speed anything (Miata, 3 or 6) buggers leaving the line behind
Its been a while, but I have some new developments so why not post 
Blew up the 2.0 a couple of weeks ago. It was pretty catastrophic, it threw the Cylinder 3 rod and took out the oil pan, wastegate, and motor mount with it.
Good news is that I was able to pick up a 2.5 duratec out of a 2019 Ford Fusion with 19k miles for 700 bucks. Pretty excited to see how it does. Not gonna try to make much more power, but hoping for some pretty decent improvements in torque and spool.
Some interesting pics:
Piece of piston found on the subframe
Damage to the WG
Old engine and subframe assembly out of the car
Gaping hole in block
Cylinders
2.5 motor in the car:
Pretty much done with the swap. I've started it and seems to be running great, just gotta button up a few things and I can start driving and tuning it. I'll probably post a couple more times with some updates.
