I think mine is the only other turbo Miata around Cedar.
I know there is one that is slammed and dark blue
Just hoping now that I am not driving down the road one night and come across this police officer and they start to think they need to be on the lookout for the Miatas that are terrorizing the back roads

Driving the car up to Cedar City tomorrow. Let me know if you want to stop by and see it.

Well I had to cover an employee this morning so I decided to take the Miata up to Cedar instead of the VW. Glad I brought my noise isolating ear buds. The car is night and day quiet compared to the original car, but that exhaust is no joke.
Car ran and drove great. Holding 85mph AFR read 14.5-15 and under boost +/-12. Might need to adjust the boost a little since it seems to hold steady at around 20 psi, when it should be around 25-27psi. Still plenty fast and fun but allofit is wanted.
Some guy had a miata on a flatbed behind a uhaul truck and flashed his lights as I passed him so I shifted down to 5th and punched it much to his appreciation through a multitude of honks.
I miss A.C....

It already has a massive magnaflow and a smaller resonator on it. It is just classic high way drone. Not a big deal. Seeing as it has no radio, the ear buds are dual purpose and comfy to boot. It is amazing how well the noise isolation works. I can barely hear the car running with them in.

Also it is cutting at 20psi so trying to get it closer to 25 psi.
Still though. So. Much. Fun. Pulled from a stoplight just barely and had the back end kick out in 2nd and 3rd. I can't stop laughing.

I keep leaving my Go pro in Cedar! Plus I'm trying to tune out the richness of the VE table. VEAL tuning keeps making it go pig rich even though AFR's say otherwise. So I'm doing it all manually.

I'm not complaining too much about the noise, don't get me wrong, I love it. If it was my D.D. I'd hate it but it matches the car so it will remain.
I put the gopro in my bag so I wouldn't forget. Y'all want suction cup outside video or inside?
Not sure how much driving I'll do today though. Tis' my B-day so I'm going to empty my bank account on sushi.
