HOLY CRAP THAT IS SWEET
Would have been cheaper to just drop in an Integra Type R motor though.  :)

Why would you want to ruin a Mazda with a Honda motor..  blah!

I've test drove the new Mazda Speed Miata I'm very pleased with the performace of the car. It's right where it should have been in the first place. I wish they would not have waited so long for it for I would have bought one.

But, atleast my soon to be S/C Miata will be far more powerfull.

Saw this too - and for mid 20's.  Hard to beat if you ask me.

Ive always maintained that the Miata is an awesome driver's car.  Add boost and who can possibly complain?

They should sell well. I'm still saving for a M62 supercharger for mine.

200 bhp is why.  Honda doesn't need a turbo to get 100 bhp/liter.

I'll complain...skinny freaking wheels!  17x7...please.:rolleyes:   No Hoosiers will fit --> no autox Nats trophy.  You would have to race the thing on crappy Kumho v700 ecstas, while hoping and praying that Kuhmo will release the new v710 with a usable size (235/35-17), cuz sure as hell Hoosier ain't gonna.

Back in 2002 Mazda Australia made 100 of the MX-5 SP (http://www.mazda.com.au/articleZone.asp?articleZoneID=14) model. It had 210hp! :)
