Well, hope i dont get too much flak for this, but i dont care for the stock 1.6l miata engine, and to do a good turbo setup on it that could carry anywhere near the power i am doing on an SR (300+whp) would cost quite a bit and a built engine. Not to mention, it would probably require a stand alone, lots of tunning, and maybe be less reliable.
For my SR setup, I will be using a S15 T28, tubular manifold, custom exhaust and intercooler. And for fuel, i just need a pump, 550 injectors and a simple ROM tune. Much easier engine wise. Should be interesting.
Anyone know how much power the LSD in these things can hold?
I see what you are saying but keep in mind that putting an engine isn't meant for the car is going to cost a lot of money. Have you checked out
www.flyinmiata.com? They have kits for whatever your range might be.
