Default New guy from Indiana

Hey everyone.

Like it says I am from Indiana where owning "toy car" is about a 5 months driving season and 7 months of bolting on new parts. I have had owned one Miata and sold it when I moved back to Indiana ( I lived in NC and SC when I owned). Now I am in search of a new Miata.

Not really new to the car scene my last toy was a 270/260 ish Powerworks supercharged Focus. With my Miata I want to get it more daily drive able. It will get FI just not to point of what happened on my last car.

My PWSC and SVT Foci. They are both sold off now.

The tuning. I can turn wrenches on cars bolts and what not but the software is not something I can do. I sent the car to a shop North of Chi-town to build the engine to handle there BBK for the SC. 6+ Months later the car shows up and the tuning had two setting Idle (which was not that good) and wide open. Part throttle was hit and miss.
