prices i got quoted on for puttin a miata turbo on my SOHC: 1,400 turbo, 600-950 for random stuff(gauges and what not), 2,000 for install (USD). and they can't gaurantee how your engine will handle it, that why im gonna go with the B6T.

You need to fabricate (make from scratch) a new manifold for the Miata kit.<P>Also, the total cost depends on the following:<P>How much power you want to achieve<BR>How many gadgets you buy to make that power<P>Usually, it costs around $2000 for a cheap setup and about 40 horses.<P>For about $3,000 you get a substantial power gain plus lots of goodies like gauges, intercooler, electronics, etc.<P>The 1.6 engine can also be reinforced internally prior to adding a turbo system for more power and reliability.<P>It's a hell of a rush. Go for it.<P>RF
