Cleanbluesky's thread about his mx5 got me thinking, some ppl just think the MX5 is out and out slow but good fun to chuck around, never done any 0-60 and onwards timed runs in mine so i though i would do one to show how the car pulls.

This was done with the roof down so it will be a fraction quicker with the roof and windows up, flat road but not totally straight, its hard to find a good long private driveway without the odd kink!

I know several other ppl have done vids so post em all in this thread :)

Anyways have a spy 0-60 is hit in just over 6 seconds its prolly 6.5 but taking the speedo error into account i get a 0-60 in 7 seconds in that vid and 0-80 comes up in 11 :)

Enjoy

Excellent vid, im curious as to the cost of your modifications and easy of installation

HT Leads are the Magancore ones, Plugs Are the NGK Longer Reach, Induction is the K&N Typhoon, Cold Air feed and box are home made, Exhaust is the IL Motorsport Twin.

Leads £51
Plugs £12
Induction £175
Exhaust £350

I do however have a Wideband O2 feeding a narrowband signal to the stock ecu and the Wideband feeding my Emanage Ultimate, i've tuned it slightly ;)

Looking at that video, it was more around 8 seconds.

At 8 seconds its doing 70 on the speedo, so thats 65 - 67 in real life, if you look the fair test is the point it hits 63mph on the speedo because i know that gps correct for a real 60mph speed, thats a lot less than 8 seconds its around 7.
