    A bone stock LF4 longblock, along with two new turbos and oil cooling system. Removing flex fuel sensor, flashing factory tunes and reinstalling factory cats to go 100% stock, Boring, but 36mo/50k warranty will give warm fuzzies on circuit...wife doesn't appreciate $18-20k repair bills.

    I appreciate your optimism...but in this case, its definitely mechanical and most likely a bearing departed the chat. In person it sounds like a 12v Cummins or if I'm being generous, a shitbox diesel Jetta. I'm just glad the damn thing started so I could get it off the trailer for its heart...

    The K24Z3 is naturally aspirated and only gets to 200ish-whp, when you turn't up with turbo stuff goes kaboom on circuit (ask me how I know). Grassroots Motorsports put a GM LFX 3.6L V6 into their Miata, that seems like a pretty good compromise - cheaper and less weight than a LS while still...

    Spun a bearing at Gingerman this weekend...requires replacement of engine, both turbos, oil coolers and oil cooler lines. Prob looking $15-20k. If a GM LF4 crate motor has a 'track warranty', I'll be leaving that bitch stock moving forward.
