I'm posting in here that CD009s are super weak and i broke one with 150hp so you can read somewhere on the internet that it's weak and move on to another choice, preferably one that's harder and more expensive because nobody likes an easy bulletproof off the shelf option.

That's actually a brilliant idea.
In fact, here's a better one:
buy up 100's of Miata 1.6 5 speeds for literally pennies.
make multiple claims in multiple posts in multiple forums and bookface that the 1.6 Miata 5 speed is an overlooked gem of a trans that has been kept a secret for all these years.
wait a bit for the morans to absorb the info and regurgitate it everywhere.
sell each for thousands, make a killing.For dedicated e85 use they're low compression
for dedicated pump gas use they're high compression
for mixed use they're not ideal for either
no one's gonna explain the basics for you

Limp peepee bad at everything.
For a best of everything engine, that's pretty un-special in every way. Kudos for springing for the unnecessary Carillo rods though. You, or whomever you bought that mess from sure knows how to burn money.

I'm having flashbacks. This dude even wanted a T56.

Yea well I think I've shown a decent starting point. I mean I have arguably the best BP you can build ('99 1.9L, Weisco 10:1 pistons, carillo rods, ACL race bearings, full Ferrea head with +1 valves, ported, oil pan baffle) the strongest Miata transmission(quaife), great chasis components(cage, tubular control arms), great suspension, widebody for 15x12 6ULs, carbon/fiberglass body panels, Racepak logger dash with GPS speed, Haltech standalone, EGT's on each cylinder, Mispec wiring harness.
Show me one person besides Emilio that can compete with that part list. Keep in mind all it need's to run as is is wiring harness and intercooler plumbing.

Yes, they are unnecessary for 99% of the cars here but I would like to push mine further than most are pushed here if you couldn't tell

I'm well aware the car runs. I am a previous owner of that car.
You have a lot of changes to be made to that motor if you want to push further than what has been pushed here.

Alright alright alright, if we want some quality material, we need to lighten up on this guy.
I wish we hadn't chased away that Super Pro Fabrication Welder Guy. Remember he was the one spouting about building twin turbo Lamborghinis? He then proceeded to incorrectly route the primaries on his twin scroll BP turbo, then we got those semi-psychotic rants. man I loved that stuff! Ya that dude..He had forgotten more than we will ever know too.
