BHP

[purrfect]

Someone please help! As I asked previously, what is BHP of 1999 1.6 & what would it be for 1999 1.8 ?

[MX-5 Lazza]

1999 1.8 (Mk2) should be 138bhp.
I believe a 1999 1.6 (Mk2) should be about 110bhp.

Thanks for that - I thought I read they lowered it in Mk 2 at some stage ? Were there 2 versions ?

my understanding is that all mk2 1.8's were 146 HP, i could be wrong though

138bhp up to 2001 when they fitted VVT and increased the compression ratio which brought the power up to 146bhp.
