Because you don't make enough money to properly boost an engine, or prep the chassis.

I guess that kinda answers the " why I shouldn't boost a Miata". Whatevs.

Wow, this really isn't the way to encourage new members to want to contribute to this forum. I guess you would like me to start judging you back?
