capri xr2 stuffs
Easy question
I have access to a b6t capri with all the engine bits for cheap
Is it worth it to get anything from it (I am going boost) just curious about cams(looked it up, seems they are the same or close to it) turbo, manifold(i can change the flange if need be), injectors, ecu, etc.....
thanks

i do, my build thread i had was closed due to tight arseness ahem cough cough braine...something or other
but since that is gone yea i have 1.6 miata, custom rare 96 edition. got it running yesterday.
powergoals are super chill, like 200 max, at the crank. i just want the choo choo kachoo noises and some more thrusting from behind...
the turbo itself is in good condition on the xr2, is it worth grabbing? i mean i know i could flip it and make monies but i mean does it spool quick and all that jazz? what bout fpr? are they variable based on boost on the xr2s?

If you're serious about wanting only 200hp (like what, 150/160 at the wheels?) then you need NOTHING from that car. The manifold is cast ****, the rods are not needed, the head is AIDS and the turbo voted blue.
This is all you need - BEGI Shanghai-S Turbo System Miata BEGi Just add a koo koo ka choo valve and you'll be set

I'll warn you once, there's an official warning just for noobs insulting staff members, so watch your mouth.
We constantly tell people not to base their build around a single part, like a turbo. It's just not worth it, and in the grand scheme of things it's not terribly cost efficient as you might think. Nothing else on that car is worth it, aside from rods that are slightly beefier, but that's too much work for your power goals. Find a nice SR20 turbo, rebuild it, get a cheap log manifold somewhere, with an FM/BEGI/Abe downpipe, and build a MS. Together with a wideband and some junk yard sourced injectors, you'll make a decent setup.
