Default Considering a turbo'd Miata

I'm currently driving a Coyote powered Mustang GT coupe. The wife want's a convertible. I'm not sure if I want another Mustang GT. It's a bit wild for her. I drove the 2017 Miata and found it to be a very fun car! Just a bit low on power. It seems a turbo is the answer. I'm trolling around here to see if there is a very good bolt on option. I know I'd want to get it professionally tuned as I have no experience in doing this. I'm also looking for a tuner for these cars in the Milwaukee area. I'm open to suggestions.

Welcome to the forum there is a wealth of information here and a lot of great minds. If I recal 949 racing has a turbo kit for the new miatas and if your up to it megasquirt for the computer is a great diy tuning tool

The computer part doesn't worry me, I'm an industrial automation programmer. What worries me is being too lean, too advanced, etc and grenading the engine. I'd gladly pay a professional to do it right.b Thanks for the tip on 949.

I probably should have noted that my intention is for a street car that will pass emissions.

BBR, TurboSource, and Avo all make turbo setups for the ND. You will find more info on miata.net.
