Engine Swaps
I ralize the 99 has a good engine but im wondering if there are any eassy engine swaps to put out some more power?
|
Actually I was thinking would the new mazdaspeed miatas engines go in without any problems?
|
the bigest problem in a mazda speed install wil be the ecu and electrical as well as finding a cheap wrecked MSM. it is cheaper fo rmost people to just get a 99+ or so 1.8 since they have the best flowing heads(this a slight compresion bump, and vics are the only changes made to the 1.8 since its inception in 94 thye are all physically compatible with each other). and turbo it you will make more hp and you will have the ability to say yeah i did it myself. the SS and other ecu and fuel control mods for NB's wich you have i assume, in wich the factory fuel pressure cannot be easily raised like us NA owners. unless you count pump removal from tank to install an fpr or running a return line on an fpr as easy. i hope this helps

Yes, and the MSM motor is nearly identical to the '99-'01 motor, so there's really no point in that swap.

5.0 :)

Nothing as easy as another Miata engine.
