random turbo question

I was looking at turboing the miata and came across a BEGi turbo kit that included a GT2860 turbo aka the “Disco Potato” the hell is it called the disco potato for?!

MR. & Mrs potatoe head’s of spring from the 70’s?

Stayin alive

you looked on that other fourm i sent you a while back right. ? the turbo miata? shit is sick

yupp

I’m thinking about picking this up for starting off

ya his kit was 4k IIRC. hope all goes well!

the term disco potato was a term coined by the turbo’s creator.what the meaning really is who knows. and the GT2860RS is the “disco potato”

thanks, I finally strayed from the idea of dropping in an LS1 and was just like ehhh I’ll turbo the stock motor

ahhh, thank you

there was a 1.8 BP engine, massive turbo’d 2g miata at lvd running 11s @ high 120s tonight.

holy fuck.

…damn. I’ve got 2 1.6L miatas. I’m gonna be the underdog, haha

yah that turbo miata tonight was sickkkkkkk

sell some crack and buy a 1.8 :slight_smile: or be a man, and drop the motor in that makes girls wet :slight_smile:

hmm, I hope it’s there on Sat. I’m probably goin on Saturday to see what the miata will run stock, lolz

Gatville was sayin I should drop a SR20DET in it

“It was developed by Garrett in the US for a project car called the Disco Potato with an SR20 powerplant”
