Hi, I'm an old guy who still has a passion for bikes and cars. The more I caress the miata the more impressed I am. These cars are well built.
I've replaced all fluids, brakes, and shocks. Now I am considering a supercharger or turbocharger.
This looks like a pretty good place to glean some information.

If you're ever around LR when there's an autocross(http://arscca.org), come catch a ride in my car and you'll get an idea of why so many of us like turbos over superchargers.

Welcome to the show. Turbo is a better bet.

Looks like we're going to be running my car and his car December fourth (We put an mp62 supercharger on his) Our sisters will be driving his car on street tires, my car on the 275 A6s, should be a great chance to compare SC vs Turbo. Ride available to anyone btw, we don't often have people wanting to ride, which is odd cause we're one of the fastest cars there, usually the fastest car that isn't trailered. Of cousre now one of our locals has his ls3+cam xp miata ready, so no one is even remotely interested in riding with us, lol.
