That's the understatement of the year. LOL Looks good. Hope the miles are low enough so the engine will handle the additional hp.



Sweet ride. Ex-'96 Miata owner myself. I'd recommend a real roll bar both for safety and to really tighten down the rear of the car. Hard Dog is the most prominent supplier and they make a double hoop Cobra-style real roll bar (not style bar) that is sweet.

The motors are stout on Miatae. I've seen 80k+ mile Miatae be turbo'd without any problems. The motor was designed for the 323GTX, Mazda's rally homologation special. Oil squirters on the pistons, extra-beefy con rods, etc. Those motors can easily make 250RWHP all day long. Flyin' Miata is the original Miata turbo specialists and they have very well-developed products at competitive prices and unmatched support. Shiv Pathek, owner/operator of Vishnu, now a WRX/Evo tuner, is also very accomplished in extracting power from turbo Miatae, especially with the TecIII computer. I better stop...
