2.0L or Turbo 1.8L
I was wondering what your opinions were about a stroked 1.8 to a 2.0, or a turbo 1.8L? Which one would you choose?
|
turbo'd 1.8
it's cheaper, and easier. |
Is this a troll thread?
Seriously. |
1.6
|
No, this is not a troll thread. I just don't know which route to go with my motor.

Seriously. No one can seriously be dumb enough to go to miataturbo.net and ask if we prefer turbos or not. :ugh2: |

Stroker motor is 8-10k. You'll make like 150whp tops without a lot of headwork, supporting mods, etc.
Or you could turbo the car, spend half of that on a really solid turbo setup, and end up with 225whp. Up to you. |
But what about teh throttle responsez and such?
|
Where is the supercharger option?
supercharger > 1600* turbocharger intake air temps |

Would that be capable with a 7000$ budget?

Well, for $7k you could do a proper turbo encabulator with high-speed blue tooth Kanouter valves, which is pretty new on Miatas, but Supra guys got into this years ago. PM Savington if you're interested.

Good one bro, how about giving me some real advice/help instead of wasting my time.
It depends on what you want to do with the car. Are you going to the track or are you a hard-parking troglodyte? |

On a 7k budget, you can put together a pretty damn nice turbo setup. How much power are you looking for, what do you want to do with the car, etc?
What year is your car, where do you live, etc? |
