Hey look! Another Canadian!
 
It's ok, relax, I'm from Toronto, It's almost American.
I can spell (usually) & I don't know everything.
I'm here at MT.net to learn from people who will be good enough to suggest & advise.
I've bought a used MP62 SuperCharger & TD IC as my starting point. I know a Turbo is better, (in your opinion) so I'll try to limit my posting to matters other than the actual blower. Things like Engine Management, Rads, Fans & other items we might have in common.
I've dnlded some of the MS software to try & figure that out. I'm working on reading the manual, & I've been asking lots of questions on various forums and by writing manufacturers / distributers.
My Miata is a 92 Sunburst with a 1.8 swap. It's had a bunch of mods, from the HD bar, to the Tein shocks & SSR Comp wheels, the Moss Lo-Pro headlights to the shiny little Roadster plate at the back.
It has parts from Sparco, Momo, FM & more.
I've done a bit of Auto-X & enjoy spending time with the local club, driving, wrenching, & telling stories.
I'm probably older than most of you, but if you type slowly, I'll try to keep up.

StarGehzer 02-18-2008 11:02 AM

Who's is that, I might want some parts. :)

Glad you said a clone of my car. Mine's not a clone of his! :giggle:

Welcome Vince; you're one more member of the foreigners' invasion. :giggle: Our final plan is to take over this site and change it to French and Spanish speaking only ;) so you (being from Toronto) will not be invited.

BTW, you may be older than most but not all members here.

Now, pics of your car or ban!

Regards,

Rafa

Ola! Rafa, we have to be nice to the Americans because...
1) they have the biggest & best forums

Welcome.

Some of the Miataphiles pronounce it StarGeezer.
I actually created the word years ago based on the Canadian habit of always saying "eh?" pronounced "A". I wanted an online name that nobody else had.

StarGehzer, eh Canehdian Miataphile. :giggle:
