thanks for any help

ps i never saw the fab fourm sweet

 

Crome and uberdata will not work for your Miata.

Megasquirt or some Mazda EMS should be where you are looking.

 

either way is just about mounting the sensors needed to support the ecu. Megasquirt is configurable to run just about any sensors/ignition you can find, where crome you need to mount the distributor from a honda and use the honda ecu and sensors. either would work, but I'd be leaning towards megasquirt. by the time you add up all the costs for modifying and mounting honda stuff to the engine, you could have bought the megasquirt.

I have no experience with megasquirt running a car, but i built one and had it running the stim on the bench. It's a pretty straight-forward system.

What type of ignition do the miata's have stock?

 

People have made Honduh distributors work before. You can flip the reluctors, etc, on the inside.

The Miata CAM sensor is jammed up against the firewall so you could never fit a Honduh distributor.

I have experience with MS v3.0 with 1st gen processor on a 91 Miata, car runs clean. 175 whp @ 11 psi on a T2, 8.4 in the 1/8th with video of it stroking multiple F-bodies at the dragstrip.

 

Maybe its just me but didnt other miatas come boosted? I know they had a little 1.8 T. wouldnt it be easier to swap in something stock and go from there?

Thread from the dead. Im blaming it on JD.

 

Fist yourself.

 

I wanna know too. Post some more info sexy *****!
