BP-D Engine Building Help
Hi im currenty building a Mazda BPD engine out of a Mazda 323 GTR, i know they run the same engine (BP) as a miata so i thought this would be a good place to get some help,
my current setup is,
94' block
bignose crank
B6-T Rods
Oversized factor replacement pistons
Non turbo bp head(no port restricter) with BPD camsafts
VF22 subaru turbo
Now im going to be using this motor on tarmac rallies/sealed sprints etc.
Im looking into engine balancing and wondering if the 'BP' engines have much trouble up in the high rev range, also im looking at making my rev limit higher..any tips/Help on these issues would be very helpfull

if you want it to rev high willingly and reliably, you need lighter internals. also I don't know which rods you have, but some of the -T rods are the same as the weak miata rods, and some are beefier but MUCH heavier. so far, I think you're off in a wrong direction to your goals.

Dude, without more information and a proper sig and profile info, you will not get any help here, so stop being a dick and introduce yourself the right way and we just might help you.
There is also this great tool, click here!
Search, read, repeat, 3-4 months down the road, ask again.
Just get some ETD rods, and tri-coat those pistons. Invest in a billet oil pump, and some lighter valvetrain. Stay on the sane side of boost, and you should be fine.
I am also a big believer in balancing the rotating assembly, but that's your call.
