Look what I found

Post by Jowga28 »

I was searching ebay today for more parts to go on my BPT engine and I came across this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2405888341&category=6770<p>I thought you guys who are looking to get more power out of their mx-3 would like to know that this engine is for sale. <p>Happy bidding.

yeah, you are right, now that I look at it. He claims 350hp, with what turbo? how many miles? He just ripped that pic off of the Cork Sport web site instead of actually taking a picture of the engine. Good call, Manach, hope nobody buys it!

Did you see it ships in 24hours? How's he going to send it via postal service....<p>No menchen of wiring harness, compression test and no returns. <p>Corksport should write to ebay for abuse of copywrite so the auction gets pulled. $1,000 is alot to loose. <p>-Cybin

Hey guys I emailed the person selling the engine and asked him some questions about the engine and here was his response.<p>"The reason for the pic from corksport.com is b/c the engine is @ a
shipping
yard waiting to be shipped. there are no miles on the engine b/c it's
brand
new. No it does not come with a tranny b/c the stock tranny in ur car
will
bolt right on. the turbo on the other hand is a little more complecated
you
will need a new ecm or a re-programmed ecm. you will also need a new
exhaust
system b/c of the turbo. as to what kind of turbo it I don't know the
exact
model but it's made by an australian branch of vortech so basically
it's a
vortech turbo.<p>E-mail me back at foeshigity@hotmail.com"<p>I hope that helps.
Peace out

good info, man. I don't know though, I'm still a little suspicious. I've never heard of Vortech making turbos, only superchargers but I could be wrong. I thought Mazda stopped making the BPT engine a few years ago when they stopped making GTRs, it would be very unususal to find a brand new engine with 0 miles unless it just happened to be sitting in a wearhouse somewhere, espcially one that didn't have the stock turbo. It would be a screamin deal if it was for real but it sounds too good to be true to me. I would be very careful and demand to see compression test and flow thru results and even then only pay with COD.
