Good luck finding a ECU that works good! lol
Check out the Mazdatrix website they put a TII engine in a Miata, pretty sweet!

A rotary in a Subaru 360? Hehe I wanted to do that 10 years ago

tell me, did they keep the engine in the back? Did they just use a VW tranny with a rotary adapter plate? Oh man that would have been cool to do one of those cars! Suicide doors and everything!

I'm going to put a 20B in one of my cars and try to come in under $10k. I've already worked out most of the details. I can't wait!

My Midget weighs more than 1500, but it is in stock trim.

Rampage used an E6K on the Miata they did. A stock TII ECU could be made to work, but if you're looking for maximum power you should go standalone. If you're looking for emmissions legal then I guess you could try the stock ECU.

Ugh...I think thats a little too far. As for the 20B, a guy that I was working with on Ebay told me that he got the engine and everything he needed for the installation of a 20B into an FD for $5500. I thought that was a deal. I have actually seen a miata with a 13B in the bay, and it was crucially fast.
