The perfect way to prove the worthiness of our Ecotec swap kit was to take it to the track. Sure, autocross, lapping days, and HPDE event are fun but if you really want to try and test the mettle of a product you take it endurance racing. Enter our 1990 Miata. We fitted a spec Miata roll cage, all the required safety equipment, and dropped in an Ecotec engine using all of our prototype swap parts. The results speak for themselves.

 

- Over 70 hours of actual on-track racing.

- Entered a total of 8 endurance races, each at least 7 hours in length.

- Entered numerous sprint races.

 

ZERO engine related mechanical failures
