Re: turbo question
You didn't look hard enough. <P>Check the 4cyl FAQs, what is used on the B6T swap can/should be used for the bolt on version. Do a search for "bolt on turbo kit" or a variation of that.<p>[ September 27, 2002: Message edited by: maldo ]

Re: turbo question
well i was wondering if i should get upgraded pistons/rods, preformance cams, better head? if i got these then wouldn't i be able to handle higher psi? also i was considering light under pully, i heard those are great for turbo/super charged cars.

Re: turbo question
You really need to do some searching on your own. 1.6L miata parts work in these motors. Go to my site in the sig below, go to the links, you will find some info there. Go to FlyinMiata.com for engine internals. There are no real head upgrades, MX-3 head is supposed to flow quite well.

Re: turbo question
Trust me, I have been looking at getting another car. Miata is first choice, wouldn't mind a 240sx either. Problem is I kinda need a "winter" car and both of these choices would turn into another project for me.

I used to know alot about MX-3's, but not so much anymore. Oh well.
