Whizbang will become famous soon enough
will i am trying to get some pictures up, i did find some information on my old engine so i can compare for myself (butt dyno). Anywho, the 12a, streetport with the 48 IDA made just about 130 wheel horsepower. This was with large amounts of dyno time as well from what i was told. Car ran pretty good with 130whp. I attribute that to 4.88 gears. But at anyrate, the miata BP will do that or more with not too much difficulty.

A SP with an IDA and it only put down 130 to the wheels. It wasn't running
well at all IMHO. My stock port does 134 with the mods in my sig. I would
expect a SP to put down at least 10 or 20 more, like ~150 to the wheels.
And I know dynos vary and so on but really that doesn't seem as good if
there were large amounts of dyno time spent on it.

Shame your not sticking with the rotary but I understand the motivation.
Good luck with the build!
