There was one at Sevenstock and I have pics of the car and the custom mounts. I will try to post them here within the next few days.

Talk to Mazdatrix. They did a turbo swap back around 91.

It's telling me my pics are too big. I have seen bigger pics on the forum. Is there a way to get around this?

Thanks man! Yeah, I am hoping to get my website http://www.rotarymazda.com back online real soon and I thought some good Sevenstock pics would get me going. I just need some time to get it all together. Someday hopefully I will have a nice website again.

you can but it takes some work. You can get alot of reliable power by just getting a miata with a 1.8 (94-present. although the engine changed in 99 and 01)

Or swaping in a 1.8 in to a 1.6 and turboing it.
