Its like 90hp - like a stock miata, but has like 180ft/lbs of torque.

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.

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

Yes, it ran 11,000 RPM.

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. :bigtu:

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

elesjuan 12-20-2007 07:12 PM

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.
