reputable miata engine builders
Hey guys I have a 04 msm. In my quest to run mid 12's on the stock turbo I blew a piston ring. Now I have no choice to build the motor. I really don't know where to start for a telital builder. I want someone who know miatas and takes their time. I'm located in nj, but willing to ship my block. I live the idea and service that FM provides but there pricing is just overkill in my opinion. Any information on shops would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Jay

I got my machine work done by a local shop - NAPA Fairfax Auto Parts - One of Virginia's largest Auto Parts Dealer. - Auto Parts, Wholesale, and Machine Shop
Machinist was a fat guy who could pass for a rapist, shop is a shady building behind a 7-eleven, kind of messy. But it was cheap and good. Machinist has good knowledge of miatas. I got minimum of machine work (bore, hone, resurface block and head)
If I were you I'd just write a check to Trackspeed Engineering - Trackspeed Engineering

My engine will be going to BogusSVO. His informative threads have really impressed me enough to walk away from our current machine shop on my personal engine to shoot it down to him.
That said, my vote is for him or Trackspeed. Savington (Trackspeed) has also been very informative, but IIRC, his are farmed out.

Good decisions. There are 2 reasons why I do not have a TSE motor in my car at this moment. The first is because he was not building motors in 2010 when I built mine. The second is because I am lazy and do not want to deal with shipping a motor back and forth from the east coast to the west coast and then back.

TSE or Center Auto in Connecticut. They do some great spec miata motors but are also no stranger to making great power on all kinds of cars. They are an all or nothin shop when it comes to builds. They won't let you walk out the door with your motor unless they themselves are happy with it. My friend got his 530 awhp b5 s4 built there as well as his miata. My long block is getting dropped off next week.
