yeah for sure. the fm kits are great. the only problem is the crappy computers they come with. your better off with megasquirt or something like that.

Sad to recklessly abandon the idea (see what i did there!) but pictures of JDM vans has really made an impact on money spending ideas!

I really loving the Honda Odessey vans.

probably the best idea would be to go surf the forums over at miataturbo.net.
if you follow ther advice, you should be able to get 250whp at 15psi quite handily.

would a 2.1 duratec bolt up to a MX5 box? or even a duratec V6?

That would be an easy 200bhp

I would imagine there would be a fair bit of work involved in fitting a Duratec engine to an older MX5, and that for the same or less £££ and time/effort a half-decent turbo or charger setup would easily get you 200Bhp+

link about the Duratec 3L here...
