Default New here, using my miata to harass porsche's on track

I am a Porsche tech, been tracking my Miata with PCA. Stock motor, spec miata suspension. Here collecting info on adding a little power. Built a lot of P-car turbo's and some very high HP MKIII supra's back in the day (before Porsche) so have some exposure. Got the shop, the cars and some cash to drop. Hoping you guys help me get where I need to be on the knowledge.

Welcome to this place.

Post some pics of your current/prior cars, GF/womenz and possible things we might find interesting.

Understandable. I assume you read this thread but if not, it's a good item by item primer. Not that you need turbo primer per se, but specific info for our cars.

Yes. Especially the MS threads. Take it a little at a time, and go back and re-read the same stuff over and over. Eventually, you start to get it. Reading it all at once is way too much info.

Post some pics! Also, put some info on your car in your sig. this will help when you ask questions, so people will know what you've got without hunting.
