Turbo NB roll call! (and poll for all turbo miatas)
I'm y8s and I have a turbo miata that's not an NA. And yes, I"m aware of the "what's your setup" thread but this is to weed out the NB-ers.
2001 base model
stock bottom end
This is an older iteration with water/air, tec3, and different piping (blue!).
Now the car has actually no turbo for a little while while I do some maintenance. It has a hydra now and i'm swapping the air/water for a front mount. Might hook up the water injection finally also. Oh and I ditched any sort of piping pre-turbo and just stuck a 4" flanged dry-flow filter on the turbo inlet.

I have pauters. I hear the stock rods are the first thing to go on the motor even in Nat. Asp applications. Guess they're good up to ~275 hp but they there is the possibility for them to fail, the built motor just keeps you happy and I'm pretty sure the pauters are lighter than OEM for less rotating mass.

I agree, sounds about right. I wouldn't have the built motor if I hadn't bought the car that way. So i guess i can say i have a 1.9 now seeing how he used the larger size Wisecos and bored it to fit with moly rings.... Think that also means i'm good for 20 psi. That's a wet dream of death right there.
