Default Hello from ontario, canada

Just joined the forum... I'm a 20-year-old student from Toronto, Canada! I'm currently building my 91' NA6 and preparing for a turbo install next season. It'll be a freshened-up 1.6 with a rebuilt gt2560r stuck to the side of it with a full 3" Kraken top mount kit from the engine to tip. Currently running the car with the stock 1.6, intake/exhaust, and a Link g4x ECU, sending it for a dyno tune next week and hoping for a healthy 110WHP. Can't wait for boost though haha. Can't wait to meet you all and fill my brain with more Miata knowledge

If anyone wants to follow my Instagram.. its @1.6mia

Welcome welcome, not sure if it'll **** up all your user names, but might want to consider a used 1.8 swap as opposed to burning money by rebuilding your 1.6

Drive what you have while you take your time building a 1.8. It will be better in every way, including having a VTPS.

Welcome from across Ontario Pond

(Rochester NY)

I also second the idea swapping 1.8 BUT I also recognize not everybody can... friend has a really nice 1.6 we slapped a rotrex on and put down 202whp, car feels great, I know you said turbo... but IMO for a stock engine 1.6 a rotrex is hard to beat in terms of easy-button for more power. Feels very very similar to another friends N/A K24 miata

otherwise, Kraken stuff is awesome. Good luck in your hours of research prior to ever asking a question here

I was interested in a 1.8 swap for the longest time; something inside me just wants to stay 1.6. Is there any logical explanation? not really haha
