I'm sorry... but what the hell did you just say?
Slow down this time kid, and google "punctuation."

You must have missed this one...
My youngest brother called me last night.
He was driving and had just passed a cop, and while he talked to me ran it up to 140mph. He'd just bought an Audi R8 on impulse at a southern Cali dealership and was driving home. That car sounds amazing even over the telephone!
The cops tagged him twice on the drive home....
The guy is insane.

Megasquirt is popular here, there is also emanage blue, Emanage Ultimate, some have used the apexi safc but I would pass. How much boost, what yr is your miata, how much HP do you want?
If you have a 1.6L and using the afm, you can pull the cover off and adjust it some. There is a screw to lean or richen for idle.
As to what management you use needs to be decided by how much power you want.

Also, if any of the videos of remote mounts are any indication, there's nothing to worry about.

God, that episode was a train wreck.
Oh wait we have to keep it on topic...
A pair of turbos roll and tumble along the sidewalk, walking their pet humans. Everything ages in reverse, microwaves flash freeze food, your neighbor's dog was flammable even before "accidentally" pouring him with accelerant, and Hondas are fast. You are now entering...
The Scary Door.
