[quote=Ribbles]I’ve heard good things about Goodwin. I’m a big fan of turbos, but I think I’d prefer a supercharger for a canyon carver.
Is it just me or is CARB being slightly less evil lately? It used to take years to get even an intake certified.[/quote]
I think newer cars are more efficient so it’s easier to pass carb. Folks have also said the wait to get carb certfied for kit cars isn’t as bad anymore. I might be tempted to convert my NA to something mean. FM has a V8 solution that is now also carb legal. Or there’s the other route of doing. Catfish. Costs about the same. One of these days.
The ND Miata are actually pretty good stock form. The only complaint people have were the stock suspension we’re a little soft. I bought coilovers two weeks into ownership. For like $980. And that took care of it. I am running about 3 seconds faster than in my NA with more power, though I think my setup is better in this car. With a blower hopefully I can knock a few more seconds off. Lol.
I think I am #3 in line for the install on October, so I’ll let you know how it goes. I will probably upgrade the radiator too since the front will be off. Beyond that, I don’t think there’s much more to do…
