    Turbo Miata

    Ok so i get my new wheels and tires put on, 245/70-17's, and go and wash my truck. After washing it I decide to air dry it on 183 going south. I romp a little and open her up. I turn arround and get on the access road and cruise. I hear a whooosh. and look over and see a Miata that was revvin. I rev back and let him know Im there. we did a 30 pull, and i pulled away ... then we got to a light and half ass launched but then got all over it. I pulled away by about 2-3 truck lenghts and let off. we got to a long stop light and waited about 2 mins for a green. A bmw was to my left and the Miatato my right. green and we go. I tried to see how good My new tires gripped but i spun them. the miata gained about 1 of his car lenghts- 10 ft- and then i started pullin past him and the BMW and got about 4-5 ahead. he asked what I had and i said... just a normal pickup truck!!! he said... you got a bottle in the back right? I said nope but im getting 1 tomarrow. he asked how big a cam i had and i said no cam... he was like come on... i said ok a z06 cam and he said somthing about his chevy and I left. I felt preety good. I know its a miata but still.

    unfortunalty not mazda speed... It was a 92-97 bs with a turbo and blow off valve that was loud. even if he only had 10 psi that prob put him at about 160-200 whp. so I still feel good. It launched preety good though.

    hey this is the guy with the miata. it is funny that the m3 was dour to dour with me and you where still behind and then you came running me down after 65 to 70 mph like nothing. my car makes just over 200whp and a m3 can run mid to high 13sec1/4mile times, just like my me. so unless your truck can run mid 14s to low 13s stock you had nossssssssssss. so you dont have to b.s. i have been running a long time i have 2 z71 truck both with bolt ons and 5.3s and a 4.8l truck can not keep up with them.

    He clearly under-estimates the power of a Nelson Performance live tune.

    I've seen many custom tunes, including Nelson, but none that fast! What are you guys getting to the wheels on the 4.8 with the Nelson tune?
