Question engine swap 2000/newer in 95 miata

I have a 95 Miata M 1.8 with professionaly installed tubro, 550 injectors and an aftermarket ECU. I am looking for information on using 2002 or 2004 long block as a swap. Can I use any of my 95 parts? Any one with information on making such a swap will be greatly appreciated.

Please explain why not. Seems to me that the exhaust manifolds are interchangeable and using the 2001-2004 intake manifold will mate up to the throttle body.

Incabulator inversion is impossible with the kaneutson regulator on the early engine accessories.

TL;DS: OP, we have been over this before on this forum many times. Short answer is "no" long answer is "yes."

We are going to need A LOT more information about what "aftermarket ECU" you are running, and what your mechanical and electrical abilities are. Things physically fit but this is NOT a "Plug-and-Play" swap.

Protip #1: I see you have started 2 threads, and neither one of them is a intro thread. Please go here: Meet and Greet - Miata Turbo Forum - The Miataturbo of miata turbo sites and start an intro thread. Tell us about your car, your goals, and your abilities. Please, for the love of FSM, post pictures of your build. Also add this information to your signature as well so we don't have to go find your intro thread to get the information. Mine sucks (because no boost) but look at olderguy's sig, that's about perfect.

Protip #2: We don't care about your "stance" or how "flush" your wheels are. This is very much a function over form community. Remember that when making your intro thread

BE WARNED: This site is powered by the tears of noobs, repressed homosexual urges, and pictures of kitties. We generally haze the hell out of noobs around here, especially ones who don't search for things. We are generally happy to help, but you need to do your part.

Protip #3:

Dude, you're an idiot and I'm tired of reading this **** on my forum. What do you not understand about "shut your idiot mouth when men are talking"? You better pray to my sigmoid that I never see a post like this again from you or I'm going to give you a 3-point warning.
