I want to know if this is really possible...
goal is a strong, reliable, and quick spooling 15psi daily driver.
Originally I was going to put forged miata B6
rods and forged B6 pistons as HiBoost did and relaxed did (his
forged ZM build here), but with the help of kooldino I was
able to have Arias make a piston to go along with a B6 miata
forged rod (belfab racing) that's a direct swap. If you go with
B6 rods and B6 pistons the pistons will have to be shaved
1mm, the ZM and B6 rods will both fit the crank but rod
length is different. The pistons are 78.5mm (.020 over) with
8.5:1 compression ratio. EMS will be the same as before -
kooldino's mpi/smt6 (ignition and injector controller) setup
except prethrottle body injector will be replaced with 4 extra
injectors into the intake manifold. cooling system being
upgraded - adding an awr radiator (and will be able to
relocate it towards the driver side/away from the turbo/mani),
oil cooler being added, wrapping turbo and building heat shield
for exhaust manifold. transmission upgraded with quaife lsd,
plus adding lightweight flywheel. IHI VF24 was p&p and jet
coated black along with the exhaust manifold and downpipe.
Intake manifold and head being p&p by speedcircuit. keeping
the exhaust as is, 2.5" with one cat.
thread updated as build continues.
- Arias pistons 78.5mm (+.5) 8.5:1
- belfabracing B6 h-beam forged rods
- speedcircuit stage 2 head
- awr aluminum radiator
- oil cooler
- indigo lightweight crank pulley
- fidanza lightweight flywheel
- quaife lsd
- P&P intake manifold (w/4 extra injectors)
- ACL engine bearings
- P&P turbo (Deadbolt monster port & compressor housing outlet port)
I need to know what i need to do to my transmition to make this work, and how much it will run me money wise and also how to tune a ecu if someone could please help that would be great thank you
