Hello.

Build a new motor on the side, play with tuning on your stock old motor. When you are confident, play with tuning in your new motor.

Miata engines are strong for 300,000 miles if oil is changed regularly. If the engine is good, add a turbo.

Put your location in your profile so it shows under your screen name when you post. Cars are built differently for different locations.

I am Norwegian. Yes. Turbo is the answer. Then a bigger turbo.
