I'm probably getting aheda of myself as I haven't even ordered my kit but I can't help feeling these cars need to go as good as they look. There is lots of stuff on the web about tuning MX5's but I thought I would share what I had found.
After my trip to Chris' workshop I came across a Mk2 MX5 in Wimborne and the guy driving it said he had fitted a Mercedes Supercharger to the car to give it over 300BHP. Having a quick search around these units are quite expensive and difficult to fit. Talking with a mate of mine, who has owned MX5's for years, his recommendation is a Mini supercharger as these are readily available and easier to fit as they are self contained (no oil supply necessary, unlike the Merc units).
A quick browse through Ebay showed quite a few units for sale, such as this:

Which has to put a few more horses under the bonnet.
Anyone else planning daft things fro the motor?
One final thought, if you have a search around on YouTube there's an MX5 with a Corvette V10 fitted to it. Mad, mad, mad...
Power!
