the previous car i built that was a miata, so with my miata i wanted to take a different route, cause i drive the turbo one everyday

the blower that i have is hated cause the stock pulley that it comes with is a 8psi pulley, and thats out of the effeciency range of the blower, the optimal rpm of the impeller is 60K rpms, and at 8psi it only spins at 45k rpms

so basically im doing to prove all the ninnys on the miata boards that the blower doesnt suck, they just dont know how to use it, which is funny cause the mathmatical formula to get impeller speed is quiet simple

you just multipy 5.25 x crank pulley size x max RPM and divide that number by the blower pulley size

the preliminary dyno runs i have done in desktop dyno show that the blower will perform better than the GT28 turbo that is on the other miata , but that will be a lil different after i install a haltek EMS in the turbo one
=)
