Has anyone built an all motor 1.8 bp?

Post by seboroth »

Hey guys, I'm wondering if anyone has ever built up a 1.8 bp yet with port polish, cams, header, Independent throttle bodies, engine management of some sort or on stock ecu, stroker kit maybe? I'm looking to see just how expensive this stuff would be and rather or not most of it is already available for the miata sense it is mainly a miata motor. I'm just afraid that in a couple years the 1.8 bpt will be as hard to find as a 20b rotary for the fd. Let me know what you guys think.

Sweet. Where did you get the itb's and was it easy to source all the parts. Do you have a picture too?

sweet, I thought that maybe a miata itb setup would work if someone produced one.

they do but it's too expensive IMO. My set up it's for under $600 with the MS I V2.2

I too am interested in seeing this ITB BP set-up :2thumbsup:

Flyin Miata offers a stroker kit for the 1.8bp engine ~$ 4,200 -$4,500. http://www.flyinmiata.com/index.php?dep ... 50++A-BEAMI would love to do that...maybe after I see how long I like a stock-internal BPT :twisted:
