It would probably start building some pretty good boost... in 5th... at about 6k rpm

Use a sequential setup with a GT35R spooling up a GT42R... Mad power.

the only problem with the T70 is that the Miata is going to flip on the left side even when parked. Aside from this... Do it.










No.

Should be do-able....with enough PC-pros and a 5th injector, you may even need to add a 6th though to be honest.
