The fastest miata I've driven in made 152whp (msm with exhuast). I'm guessing 225whp will be exciting, or is that where it starts getting "scar?"

Ya, 200whp in mine was MUCH faster than stock. But I've had a heavy foot my whole life, soo 200whp very quickly was not enough. Maybe its the way I drive but I NEVER had any peeling out or traction problems like other people talk about in other threads. I get on it plenty but I never have lost traction. I would chirp from a stop somewhat often after the 6 puck was installed though.

Back the this thread, I have always though this car was pretty hawt :P I like it more with the kevlar lip vs the GV lip though. I <3 the v mount especially though. I want to do something similar.

Looks custom. Not too hard to do. I did it to a friend's 1G eclipse around eight years ago. I took the plexi, cut it to the right size and then laid it over the orginal cover and put them in the oven, worked well. Finding a good light is difficult, especially if you want to be legal. I can't believe people pay $500+ for this type of thing.

I believe the headlights are the discontinued Mid Tenn low profiles. Everything I've heard is bad light output and low quality... but darn they do look good
