DJ you are in Houston right?

PM me if you want to talk. Why did you sell your turbo kit for a swap. Should have just gotten an ecu and called it a day

I've considered a diesel swap... I'm waiting for the BMW 120D engines to age a few years so I can pick one up cheap and import it. They rev to about 6K and make good power and torque. They also get about 3X my current city fuel economy. I bet with a slightly larger turbo and some stage 2 injectors I could make that engine perform very well. I won't be doing that to this car though, I'll get one that's a little more beat up and use it as a DD.

djkompressor

how about a SR20DET? i remember seeing a miata have that and it seemed to fit the car well

Yup, and there's a guy up the road from me with a p-port in his 70-whatever rx7. Last time I was over, he fired it up for me and we rode around the block. It was so loud, one of his neighbors called the cops. He was shifting at 10k.

i guess he wanted to be different? lol i wouldn't do it. id just turbo my stock 1.6 or get a 1.8 to a 2.0! and boost

If you want to be different, slap a 2.3 MZR turbo in. Stock form you've got 270hp/280tq and be done with it.

iTrader: (12)

Ok, really, id have 2 miatas. one with the supercharged s2k engine, and one with a supercharged LSX... as long as monies dont count

djkompressor

You know what would be intresting? A turbo 5cylinder audi engine. Would sound badass.

DIESEL! Then get a banks kit, bullydog exhaust, stacked chips.. And some propane!

1.8 2.0 not much of a difference.
