Never used them for v bands but have had no problems with various tubing orders. As long as they are not the cheepo ebay v band clamps you should be fine.

Bought a legitimate part for a change! APR 250 mega wing as seen sitting on the msm for yucks. Should give a *bit* less drag than the wing I made.

My post dissapeared :(
More parts hoarding. I found a Skunk2 knockoff intake manifold for a b18 on ebay for $70 because there were some messed up machining marks near the flange. Big deal. I need...
I never did a full writeup on it but made a diagram of the circuit. I might have changed it a little but this should work.

Minor update. Not much has gotten done since I have been waiting forever for the new motor. I decided to clean up the new blower I will be using.

So the motor didnt survive. This was a known possible outcome for it since it was originally in a different car for a bit car and had oil pressure issues then. A few hundred miles into the breaking...
Trying to be nice to the motor during break in. Otherwise I would probably do a 14psi pull leaving the garage and kill the motor.
Yes it is. Cleaned up the engine bay and painted a lot of the...
New engine is in and running like a champ. While pulling out the old motor I found a lot of interesting things which in order were:
Radiator was missing a lot of coolant and resivor dry....

No sarcasm. I made 190 to the wheels on a stock na 1.8 at 7 psi. Not too unreasonable that at 14psi on a 1.9 with a large valved 99 head to reach 250. The reason most people hate on the blowers is...
Yup whp
Got my mazdaspeed miata intake cam today. I plan to get going on the swap tomorrow.

I am aiming for somewhere in the 250+ region which should be doable. The trackdog car has similar mods and made 288 hp so who knows it could make a lot more.
Can't really comment about the cost of...
The old engine is as there as it has been. Going to be tracking it more and at 14 psi i didnt expect a stock block to hold up for too long. Also wanted to up the power more. In miata challenge boost...
New motor hopefully going in this weekend.

Dual throttles ftw
Did something not racecar. Although it was nice that the protege Valve cover relocated the breather line to a place where it was no longer crushed shut by the blower.

Hey I have seen that car before!
Well the car is still not quite running. I had problems with the moss tensioner I had and had to bend it back to the right shape. I then let autotune run and well it seems the wideband was completely...
On a 1.8 the base it should make 150 on a healthy motor. Mine made 155 with the stock kit. On the first page of this thread I have a dyno with the mods you describe plus the crank overlay.
The unmolested m45 kit was pretty reliable. This recent problem seems to be related to a boss on my head being stripped. Well aside from the pulley issue. The idler has grooves worn in it from almost...
A little bit of progress in getting my boost back. Been too busy with 949 racing recently to get much done. I decided to repair the bracket by welding material where it deformed then milling it back...
