Sounds realy nice and i like people being different and trying something new but why not just rx7 it? more power less weight win win.

How does he know it makes a lot of RPM's the damn gauge cluster doesn't even work. And why the fuck would you go from turbo(4 banger I'm assuming) to 6 cylinder ITB's? Less efficient...

I guess no one told him Miata's were made for girly men who wear sweater vests and go for cruises with their pomeranians.

I'm quite interested in how he mated the KL fwd bellhousing to the miata box. They mentioned using an RX-7 bellhousing and flywheel, but the bellhousing is traditionally part of the block?
Either way, mad props for an infinitely cool project. I hope it claims some scalps!

Horsepower is a fun number to talk about. Most of the responses seem to come from keyboard heroes who haven't done anything more mechanical than open a can of Redbull
