Just to note the engine will be running 2.5 bar and the turbo is a T72 Turbonetics
As for the Spec: Duratec HE, DKE Custom stroke crank, Arrow Rods, custom pistons, Girdled block, Steel Liners, CNC big valve head with Numonic valves, 8 big injectors, dry sumped etc etc
No expense spared
power should be around 850bhp
being built to take on the current fastest front driver (an mg zr of all things)@ ten of the best:eek:

TBH no thanks. This might sound a bit odd but I'm quite happy with the power the MX5 has at the moment anymore and it would ruin the fun.
Still that looks like a hell of a piece of engineering. Although I suspected it, I didn't know that the MZR engine (Mazda's Duratec) only really differs from the mondeo engine by having VVT.

individual throttle body per cylinder inside that rather insanely large plenum that and it's intended use is 1/4 miles so i doubt it'll have a chance to lag much tbh
never realised the mazda had variable valve timing :confused: your engine is exactly the same as is in my fiesta st albeit a better exhaust manifold and airbox design and using rear drive
theres a cosworth supercharger kit for your car pushing power to 240bhp with the appropriate mapping have a friend with an older shape eunos import 1.6 with a eaton charger on it and it looks pretty entertaining

Yeah, the engine in your car is a Mazda developed engine, it is the same apart from VVT, airbox and exhaust. The Duratec engines don't have VVT though.
R U sure the Cosworth kit is for my car, I didn't realise they'd done an upgrade yet for the NC (Mk3). Still I wouldn't be interested as there's just enough power to have lots of fun without compromising the balance and character of the car.

Oh, dear someone must have the inbred Fwit enclosure open at the zoo and he's found his way on here

Gorbash, I doubt Vidal's post was aimed at you. We had an incident on Wednesday night when an idiot managed to get approved as a user and decided to post some incredibly rude and offensive posts. All his/her posts were deleted and they are banned from accessing the site now. So, Vidal is referring to posts which he could previously see, but now no-one can see - except mods.;)
A.:D

Gorbash, like Andy said that post was aimed at a troll we had on here the other night.
By the way that kit looks awesome, but I think I might be happy with the current setup at least for know ;)
