Hey guys, names Zach. Just picked up a 99 a.e from an auction for $3100 with 108k. Not new to the car scene by any means (had a few DSMs) now lookin to autocross or show the miata not really sure haha.

Already have been using the forum to get some info and figured it was time i signed up, so thanks for all the upcoming answers to my n00b questions lol

 

welcome to mfz, so plans to remain stockish or more power?

 

Defi nicely add more power, iv been looking into dropping my dsms t25 in since ihave that entire car laying around, its already got a nice K&N typhoon, then add a nice roll bar and exhaust, im gonna try for about 250hp

 

250 is about the point where Rods get weak, which t25 is it td04h?

 

Good to know, how strong is the crank? Iv got a pretty strong fear of crankwalk lol. Its actually a td05

 

You won't have a problem with the crank, there's guys making 350+ on them.
I don't think anyone has actually broken the crank.

 

Ok good, one thing i havent found is a mani that can fit the t25 any ideas where i could find one or should i just get an adapter?

 

heres a few pics of the A.E

 

Google artech fabrications, he custom makes all kinds of manifolds.

 

awesome thanks man, already glad i joined here lol
