Fun fact! If you add up the total cost for a '16 Miata Club (~19K or less), car wrap (~3K), and supercharger (~5K), you're at $27K, well under the price of a new Miata Club (~$31K club, ~$35K with BBS & Brembo package like this car has). Will it be as reliable as a new Miata? Absolutely not! Will it be more fun?! I think so! Big thanks to AutoTempest for sponsoring this episode! bit.ly/2Bq1wbw

Awesome video guys. Was nvr in a Miata but the 3 was in my top couple choices of a new car last month. They gave me a little better deal on an Impreza, so that’s what I got.. next goal= wrx.

@KakEvan - You should know better than anybody else if you can or cannot handle such a project.

@Ignas Kasulaitis - Nobody has gained full access to the ND2 ECU so far. Some fiddling for NA tuning seems to work, but not enough to make the required adjustments for the supercharger. Also, EcuTek seems to be not interested into the ND2.

@Aldi More wooooosh

another video on the nd miata :)

I know this guy takes no risks. Come on man you are a technical guy, with immense knowledge of cars and fidgeting around with a Miata?

the mini whiteboard was a knee slapper

Love the "Jiffy Lube" skit sir!

air filter skit, lol

Hello there. I wanted to know if there is a similar Super charger kit with detailed instructions available for a Honda CiViC 2010. I have seen some videos on YT but they don't say the kit comes with a tutorial. Any suggestion would help.👍

You need to give that thing a italian tune up every now and again to keep the valves clean.

Is there any need to upgrade the engine internals? How much boost pressure can the stock engine handle?

Why did you get rid of the s2000? Too much oversteer? Haha

I have a 2016 Club there was not a yellow color option then? Has that car been repainted?

Okay... the backup white board had me laughing. Can't you use something like green foam on the carbon?

One love! Thank you

That was proper good acting! And damned funny! props

these guys would be great at presenting a TV show for pre school kids

No he will argue that everything he owns is a R32 despite the fact they are in fact Golfs, and not skylines.

I put that edelbrock supercharger on mine. The shaft in the bypass valve would constantly bind up. When that happens you get no boost and car makes 90hp. Happened to me on the dyno several times. Edelbrock sent us a new one. I have had it on the car for a couple years now and have decided to remove it. It make me hate the car. It puts out 207whp but its not worth the effort.

That is good but when are you putting the pop ups

I hope someone can see this. I want to supercharge my 2.0 Mazda 3 hatchback. Tell me it is possible to do it with this miata supercharger, since the engine is the same.

Hey Jason, in the last 2 weeks I've driven an AP1 S2000 and a ND2 2.0 Miata. My guess is, at one point in your life, you will go back to the S2000. I had an S2000 for 7 years but I sold it. Selling an S2000 is always a mistake. Not to bash on MX5 by any means, but to me the feeling just isn't the same.

The pipes dropped because you added fluid.

LOL the engine filter bit got me! The classic! keep it up yall!

That guy likes Golfs

Not gonna lie, I'm a little disappointed. People say "supercharger" and I think "Mad Max" (the first one).

Jason: I want to put a supercharger in my Miata Charles: (thinks: this will be about a 8 hour job) Jason:... and I'll help you do it. Charles: No worries. 3 days should do it.

I don't care about the supercharger. Where did you get that yellow Miata?

"baaariiiiing a backup whiteboard....." #🤣🤣🤣

Yeah, I’m going to run out tomorrow and trade my 2017 Z06 for a Miata!

The nerds Miata is cooler but needs a spoiler. The hillbilly’s Miata needs to clean up them Headlights, get a paint job, and a spoiler.

It's a very nice job but spark plug Nara doing best job i n.. 10:16

This is a fun piece to watch. Cheers!

5:08 "So, is [changing the air filter] something I can do myself?" Volkswagen: "No. In fact we'd prefer if you never even opened the bonnet yourself."

8,000 point inspection, hahaha!

Damn I thought to get my car faster I just had to buy a supercharger and attach it to my engine :(

Glad to see you back with your project car 👍

Very informative and well done, if you want to see other great 12 volt videos Thank you for the content

Great video. The way engine compartments are designed nowadays is INSANE. I miss when the engine compartment had room for the engine *and* the hands of the people working on it. This is just ridiculous.

Question can you supercharged a 2016 Jetta gli

Awesome Work Fellas ! I love Supercharged Builds ! I just Finished Putting an Eaton M90 on my Subaru, Check out my Build If You Get a Chance.

Haha one of the Miatas I'm looking at is actually in the video

Yoooo, This was an awesome vid! Now I wonder if I can squeeze a supercharger into my car budget 🤔

B-b-but the carbon deposits... :(

I wonder can i supercharged my w123 Mercedes Benz

what wheels do you have on there?

didn't explain the most important thing reason for supercharging instead of turbo

Cool to see how you go about adding power upgrades to a real car, was so much easier in Gran Turismo and Forza! When I used to play those games, the boosting part was taking something like 3s but the tuning part to make it good on track was sometimes longer than 3 days xD

Great video! Is that a TVS supercharger? Just a humble request. Please do a video on TVS superchargers (with a whiteboard) O:-)

i literally laughed out loud when the second whiteboard came out. well done!

That whiteboard is persistent and really wants to be in your videos... lol... As if the whiteboard is sentient...

Already have a miata but I am convinced to get that Edelbrock SC, had me at a 3 year full power train warranty and people have great things to say about the tune it comes with and what was it 45% ish more horse power? Yes it's more like why not at that point

Lol the air filter part was too realistic man! they used to always try and get my wife at every oil change at subaru with new filters and they come out with some old beat up air filter, i would tell her to reject it because i can just do it my self, im not paying 40 dollars for a air filter change 😆

8,000 point inspection hahahaha

Please Make a vedio on engine flush

Bought a Miata and now your videos pop out in my feed lol. Cool videos bro very informative ✌️

To much talking and more talking and more talking and not enough how to put a supercharger. Again more talking and talking and talking. This video sucks.

4:19 I feel personally attacked. This happened to me the other week when taking my new car to get a service. dude comes out with a black air filter saying he has to change it and will cost $100.

@Charles the Humble Mechanic - LMAO !

Loved the stealership dance

wasnt his miata black? where is the video where he repainted it

That shop need some acoustic treatments and a decent audio system

Yeah man I'm looking to supercharge my Tesla. When's the video?

You guys have the best chemistry of any couple on YT, I mean a duo :-)

WOOT!!!

Charles my Guy 😎💯

Sooo... The hardest part of installing a supercharger is installing the supercharger? Seems legit!

@Engineering Explained @ Humble Mechanic if you did this job in a regular shop how many hrs would be charged to get this SC installed with the tune to make it all work? Also great job guy's!!

Do you/ did you install a catch can in your car?

I too, was convinced to buy a Miata!

Why I used NOlocal vanced so I don't have to pay NOlocal to not watch ads just to watch this guys ads. Now I don't have to watch anyone's ads

My guess is 220 HP

This is such a fun video. I wish there was less dead space in the audio. Maybe some music would work🤷🏿‍♀️. Anyway, thanks for the content.

But... wasn't the Miata you bought black?

The 2.0 skyactiv-g engine is high compression (13:1). I have a 2015 mazda 3 2.5 skyactiv and I have searched high and low about adding forced induction, but everywhere I look people say it's not possible without expensive modification and engineering. How is this possible?

Question @Engineering Explained: Did you remove the OBD2 connector from it's flabby wobbly mounting bracket on purpose? I found it to be notorious for a bad connection, in particular with the EcuTek cable. You never really know if it is fully plugged in or not.

Wow if that's your dream car you have very low expectations

I need to supercharge My shitbox auto civic. Got a bad left knee but love my Honda. Had an accord..on second thought I just need a newer v6 accord lol

Not cleaning those gunked-up valves was a mistake. They were right there, exposed and accessible. That problem isn't going to fix itself. Now, you have to remove the supercharger to get back in there. Maybe an oil catch-can will prevent further buildup, maybe not. It should help, for sure. But the crap that's already there has a significant effect on airflow into the cylinders. To go through this whole expensive process, and not do this very important thing, well... [shakes head, look of withering condescension and disappointment upon critic's face]

I'm really surprised that you've skipped cleaning the carbon build up off of your valves given all the knowledge that you have. Especially that you were right there with everything out of the way.

How about a collab with HP Academy? Infinite loop of information.

this was really interesting. good video

OMG Every Dealership!!!! Honda wants to change the Cabin Air Filter every visit.

But which website will help me find whiteboards at the best price?

Somehow I want to be your neighbor guys 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Fenske looks like he’s high off his ass

Wait - when did the Miata turn yellow?? I missed that video.

Thanks for the honesty, details and reality of when things do not go perfectly.

Imagine being the guy that works at the parts store and just selling to them would be the best

This ia gay aometimes ...they high on weed 😂

I want to buy miata but no money . I doubt fit inside also miata is not popular here where i live so you cant find to try it. 😅

Excellent content, thank you very much! This supercharger also do the whining noise? Here we have Eaton for Superchargers too and I want to buy one in near future. With low pressure still needs the intercooler? I think something between 8,7 and 10,1 psi. Do CVT transmissions handle it? Idk if it can handle the additional torque even with a transmission oil cooler kit (I believe it must upgraded too) and when the CVT get hot under stress it do the whining noise too.

Nice Job. What are those LED lights under-hood you are using ???

White Board Gang!!🤙🏻

That air filter looks about 10 minutes old. Still got another 100k on that. Talk to me when it's black

I'm confused, according to what I learned from your own videos that appears to be a twin screw super charger not a roots?

It's a roots. Here's my video explaining that it's a roots. :) nolocal.info/have/video/pHp5qdCIyI1uzpA

LS3 (~5k) would make this car truly interesting and special. BTW I want to see one of these cars fitted with the the 2.3 ecoboost from a mustang. Or a mustang which weighs less than 2300 lbs (why not do both????). Superchargers are for v8's, don't remember any 4 cylinder supercharged race cars. I do remember from the 1980's sierra 2.0 cosworths (550+hp) racing in Australia! They were TURBO charged!

Reminds me a bit of a monster Miata where Ford crammed a 5.0 engine in one for fun

LOLOL @ the airfilter replacement!!!>...

Can this go into an NB series?

even the miata looked happier
