The diffuser I custom made out of fiberglass and I hacked up my exhaust to make it center exit and added a borla muffler. End result came out pretty good.

Hey! Yeah, I can make the duct for the driver side and the blank for the passenger side.

Appreciated, thanks!

There’s definitely other locations that would work, I just went with this one 😅

Definitely could, I had someone order dual blanks and they were going to use them for brake ducting. I’m currently in the middle of moving so printing is down for the moment but should be back up soon!

I got mine from an eBay seller but the trd style from carbonmiata looks to be the same design.

​@@thirdgengarage appreciate the response, car looks great :) might have to steal your wheel/tire spec that you shared in the other video

I think I got lucky, I haven’t had much of an issue since, sometimes I have a low idle if the car is still cold but not much else

Much appreciated, 🙏 Thank you!

I did end up deleting the washer bottle. Either location would be fine I just picked this one.

Good idea! What type of filament was it? Luckily haven’t had any melting issues yet 🤞but if I do I’ll keep that in mind.

They’re close in size to the NB1 turn signal lens inside the headlight, I like that idea!

😁 they’re motorcycle mirrors that I adapted to fit.

Oh I know 😅, no problem!

Thanks! If you already have the cut outs in your bumper check out my website for the blanks or ducts, thirdgengarage.net

Do you make the cut outs?

Wiring was pretty straight forward. It comes with a full diagram to show where everything connects to. If you're already running a second battery in the trunk it's going to be even easier since all you'll need to route to the front is the accessory wire and the cable for the remote.

@@thirdgengarage for the accessory wire, where did you tap that into? I know it can be a pain to figure out?

We used fuse number 12, ecu fuse.

I’ll get them out asap, thanks!

Thanks for watching!

Hey, thanks for the interest in these! I've added them to my site thirdgengarage.net with an option to order two blanks.

From your user name id assume you have a NB2? I’m currently working on a setup for the NB2 since it’s different than an NB1, I’ll have a video coming soon about it!

@@thirdgengarage my nb2 has a nb1 face swap

@@Clean.NB2 even better, these should fit as long as you have the fog light cut outs and shrouds

Thank you!

I hardly ever drive the car in the rain and I’m used to taking precautions if I do, I run a vented hood that I swap back to stock if rain is coming. I’ll probably make a cover in case of rain, but I won’t have to worry about that until the fall.

I appreciate that, thank you!

I’ve seen that book mentioned around forums, going to have to check it out, thanks! I’m also thinking the length of the first funnel and how quickly it reduces could need some reworking, but at this point I’m just guessing. 😅

Thanks! The asa filament I used should do pretty well as far as UV resistance, but I think they could do with a couple of coats of satin black anyway to darken them up.

Thanks for the feedback, I’ll work on it for future videos.

As much as I told myself I was moving on after the duct, I think this is the move.

i took a video of my iat readings before and planned on doing one after on a comparible day, 80 F, but havent yet. I like your idea, covering it then uncovering it and logging to see what happens.

I’m printing in ASA, I’ve have good results as long as the print is at least 2mm thick, if not I get some layer separation, theirs probably something that can be done to correct this. I’m not terribly well versed on printers, first and only one I bought is the ender 3 pro, got it for cheap at micro center and have been learning on it. I think I’m pushing it printing ASA without any upgrades but so far so good.

​@thirdgengarage you got the file for the piece in the video

Appreciate that, thank you!

Thanks for the info! I've seen the 21 inch U-bend intakes before with positive comments on forums. Maybe i'll give it a try in the near future.

@@thirdgengarage or go itbs lol. Either way I'm curious to see what's next.

Yeah, I’ll work on making an overview of them. Thanks for the request!

Thanks! They’re some diy Home Depot specials 😅

Correct, and at highway speeds currently I am getting about 25 degrees above ambient outside temperature. I believe the thermostat in this car is 185 degrees, but that’s for coolant, not intake air temp.

Why not lower the rad and go over it and mount the air filter in front of the rad?

@@kristofvanbecelaere4231 Good question, mostly personal preference. I've seen the formed pipes that go over the radiator and pull from in front of the radiator, I understand the fuction but am not a fan of the look of it. Also, i'm pretty sure they're designed for the NA miata. I didn't mean to start chasing after cooler air temps, but here I am. 😅 I have one last mod for this then i'm moving on to fixate on something else 😁

No problem!

Yeah, I was on the fence about it for far too long, glad I finally did it. No problem!

same bro same

Leroy engineering proved that there is no notable difference in terms of performance between having 60º air and 90º air, at least on a N/A engine with no other performance modifications. also as a side note, when driving, the engine bay of a miata renew it's air every 4 seconds, so its not that hot in there.

@@2seater_mx5 lol the air density would be not equal at 60 degrees and 90 degrees so how could there be no difference in performance? makes no sense

​@@griffinmackenzie it's because the difference is so small it doesn't show up on a Dyno or it's negligible

@@Gizmo_- no

People arguing about 5 hp is hilarious. 🍿

Yeah, Not knocking the breather filter, I haven’t heard of anyone having issues with them. It just seemed to make sense to me to keep it connected to the intake, wasn’t difficult and probably cost about the same.

Yes, it’s not huge but there’s definitely a difference.

I run 91, unfortunately 93 isn’t available near me

Thanks!
