    Wait til you have that boosted diesel! lol

    Mighty Car Mods actually did an episode/series pitting 2 NB Miata's against each other on an auto-x course. One supercharged, one turbo, both at the same max PSI. The supercharged one way outperformed on the course, although I bet the turbo car could turn up the boost and take off on the straights. It makes sense due to turbo lag, but was cool to see in practice.
    Yeah, I def feel the same..

    I had a turbo car for a while and the way the boost hit made it not that fun to hit the twisties with.. It was def fun with all the noises and just being a pretty quick car, but I got rid of the 300whp car and replaced it with an m20 e30 lol

    If I had to choose between a boosted miata or an NA- I would go with NA

    Varg, I definitely feel that at times... The older I get, the more shit I have to deal w and the less time I have to work on my own projects...

    Very jealous that you'll be on that road.. def a goal of mine to hit that in the e30

    Crazy how life gets in the way and tanks your motivation to do something sometimes. My wagon is barely any further along than it was at my last update in its thread, but I have a goal in sight; road trip up to the smokies and hitting the driving roads in the area. I just hope the weather holds out because my rear tires are not well suited for anything lower than the 50s, not that I plan on pushing the car on those roads, just spirited driving. Goal; at least one wagon tail of the dragon pic in the thread before December.
