newbeee from the other side ^^
 

hello,

i´m new in this forum.

my name is rainer, i´m from germany - aachen city near the border to netherlands/belgium.
about 80 km from the nuerburgring :brain:

sorry for my bad english, my skills aren´t the best and it´s sometimes a bit hard for me to read/write :loser:

my fun car is a 91´Mazda MX-5 1.6 with 116hp (similar to miata, but witout airbags and rear licence plate holder are bigger)

my daily car is a 95´ Mazda MX-3 V6 133hp.

my big problem is ... i don´t know whot to do with the little car :D
my B6D engine is knocking and it got too less power.

so the way is ... 1,8 na engine with na tuning (cams, flywheel, exhaust, high-comp pistons, ...) but this will cost a lot and the output is not so high.

or 1,6 replacement engine for less money (~200bucks) and go for turbo baby ^^

but which turbo... theres more then sand on a beach :D
engine management would be a DIYautotune.

yes i know damn :noob:

the miata is greate to drive, i love it. but bevore the miata i got a nissan 200sx RS13 (its a 240SX coupe with a CA18Det engine stock. and mine got stage2 @ 250hp - topspeed 260km/h on autobahn) and a Mazda RX-7 FC3s Turbo II coupe.

so i´ll read some projects here and hope to find a answer of my question (damn man whot should i do... NA or TURBOOO) ^^


do some like to have some german licence plates? i heard some US boys like to have one.

Welcome.

There are a few turbos that are sized very well for the 1.6L Mazda. You can learn to plot on a compressor map to try your own, or take the tried and true recommendations like the T25 from the Nissan SR20 which is a perfect, quick spooling and torquey street turbo on our cars, still capable of ~220whp.

Welcome,

+1 I love my Garrett 2554. Spools nice and adds quite a bit more fun to the roadster.:giggle:

2554 is weak. A low mount tubular manifold with a .64 2860 will put some lead in your pencil.

Also, your English is not bad at all. You at least use the apostrophe correctly. The same cannot be said about a bunch of fucktards that waltz through on and off.

What is you power goal?

EDIT: <--- 4k post :D

thank you for you answers :)

yes the T25 is a good choice in my opinion. for testing only i can use my oil-sucking T25 from my ex-200SX. but the most ebay turbokits using T3/T4 flange.

T28 is toooo much for good driving. on my 1,8 CA18Det the T28 spools @3800rpm and then it kicks good with around 1 bar

mhm my power goals are around 180-200hp. the car should be good driveable for the eifel/nuerburgring. a little bit downhill touge :bowrofl:

Yeah I'm bias to bigger turbos. I love my kick-in-the-ass 2870 :D, but in Miami every road is a straight away. A T25 is enough for your goal.

Also, you may be interested in looking up Braineack's set up. He's running a T3 on a 1.6 with a very good power-band. Just in case you want to try the ebay manifolds the Tacotaco T3 Cast is been recommended a few times.

a guy here in germany can sell me a BP-T engine from a Mazda 323 GTX (maybe in US its called familia? -> http://www.turboclub.com/turbocars/m...ilia_GTX_1.jpg)

maybe someone using this engine here too?

Welcome to here! Man, those turn signals give the car some kind of je ne sais quoi.
