Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

To be fair it was the nicest LS400 I've ever seen. I'll see if I can find pictures of it still. Had super nice wheels, BC Racing Coilovers, a Carbon Fiber wing from an Evo, straight piped, intake, and I think some engine internal parts

Yep it's LS swapped. Driver is Dave, owner of Dave's Miata Shop - specializing in miata drivetrain work in Southern Ontario. I think mostly NA and NCs.

@bcredeur97 hope you can keep engine bay temps down. Its been in the 80s here today and the intake air temps are in the tripple digits of the S10. ATF temps are about 197-208. Its getting to be summer. 

 

They are sexy though. 

Just get an intercooler :D

When it gets v8 swapped maybe it should get a little dinky turbo too

Is there enough space without taking out a sawzall to do that?

No. If you want a turbo on these you pretty much have to do a rear mount or get creative. 

 

Of which neither I want to do so if its getting boost it has to be a procharger. 

 

Then I'd blow the 4l60e and it would have to get a stickshift swap which I dont want to do, so NA LS2 it is. 

Boost your V6. AKA First iteration of the Rotsun. S10 4.3 V6 with a 7.3 PowerStroke turbo

let me remind @vinyldash303 even though it was kind of their fault for doing it poorly and because of their torture, the rotsun has blown up many a time :P
