we we are probably much lighter! but i dont know.. never knew how much those weighed

 

4g63... that was MY idea :( i've always thought about it since u can convert the AWD to RWD

 

id go with a supercharged s2k engine with about 300 hp.. thated be sweet.

 

404: Torque not found.

LSx.

 

id go with a 1.1 Yugo motor
actually two of them, on up front one in the back
yeah, AWD Miata
NOT

 

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

 

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.

 

why. Turbo 1.8 can make the same power

 

Torque++

Those pigs are heavy, 3000+

 

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

 

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.

 

you refer to yourself as "he" now? As well as act like you didn't start a thread about engine swaps......

 

Ok, really, id have 2 miatas. one with the supercharged s2k engine, and one with a supercharged LSX... as long as monies dont count

 

Well then, since you're buying... I'll take two, please.

 

if you read the post before the quote, i was talking about how i saw a guy do it. so thats why i was say to pitlab i guess he wanted to be different

 

You know what would be intresting? A turbo 5cylinder audi engine. Would sound badass.

 

DIESEL! Then get a banks kit, bullydog exhaust, stacked chips.. And some propane!

 

1.8 2.0 not much of a difference.
