terry says you can make upwards of 290whp on the stock motor?
also what gen does the 1.6 come in? Im looking for a 1st gen

Re: silviata comeing to rich.
Both hold up to about 250-260 perfectly fine on stock internals.
Which is really all you can do reliably anyway, because beyond that power leve, transmission problems seem to occur.
The solution for that is either to swap an RX-7 TII driveline, for which you would need some custom work/welding...or you could swap in a newer 6speed from either the RX8 or Mazdaspeed, and a diff that would stretch out the gears a bit.
If I get to that point, I'll be doing the latter.
