Title: I've Done it now... ( Identify this Flange)
Post by: pitobread on August 07, 2013, 12:48:51 AM: Few months back I went crazy on Yahoo Japan and bought a set of ITB's for what was listed as BP-ZE for absolutely retarded cheap. When they arrived I compared them to a 1.6 manifold I had laying around. looked very similar but bigger... The port spacing was wider so hurrr duurrr I assumed(wrong) that it was 1.8L! I don't have a spare engine/head that is 1.8 so I couldn't at the time check it out.

Doing the turbo thing I made up a plentum for it, fabbed a custom fuel rail and basically made it in to a functional setup. I was going to install it in a few weeks so I grabbed new gaskets. Problemo.

See attached picture. I have made an error, full stop.

So to get my money out of it I need to figure out what it is for exactly. You nogs are smrt so help me out.

Post by: pitobread on August 07, 2013, 08:16:55 PM: Definitely not AE101. Everything is symmetrical and AE are not. Plus the port spacing is huge. That is the 1.8L gasket chilling on there.

I'm guessing you picked up a gasket for a pre 99 miata. BP05 style.

Heads were changed on the 99 miata.

Whats this going in? The NB head flows better so you could swap one on.

Post by: pitobread on August 07, 2013, 09:13:58 PM: I have both a 96 and a 99 Gasket here, both too narrow. But the 99 fits slightly better as in the port height is correct. Still way off though.

It looks like a BP tho !@#$%

Post by: carkrazed on August 07, 2013, 10:17:03 PM: Well.......seeing as how Mazda B series engines have the injector bosses in the head, what made you think this would work on one?
Title: Re: I've Done it now... ( Identify this Flange)
Post by: pitobread on August 07, 2013, 10:18:38 PM: Lots of ITB setups move the injector closer to the throttle blade and use plugs to button up the head, Fuji/OER for one example.

Post by: carkrazed on August 07, 2013, 10:24:10 PM: Interesting. Never seen any miata setups like that.
