    Default Finally got FI

    I bought Mac's (Ipress) 99 sport (previously Brian Goodwin's) MP62 car....
    Matched my 92 silver, plus I already have the correct hardtop.

    Had been looking into FI; driven in and had been given a ride in at least 5 FI cars... New MSM, a couple of turbos, and Titus' SC car..

    Like Mac, I came to the conclusion that it would be cheaper to get one already done.

    First impression: whoa!... Boatload of power for a Miata... Crazy fast.

    Just my first impressions; looking forward to this weekend.

    Thanks Mac.

    Hey Randy,

    Look forward to meeting you. Since we serviced this car I can say you have a solid mechanical car. Let us know if you need more assistance.

    Thanks Gary. I briefly met you at MSR on a Miata day. The fact that you had gone over that car actually helped influence my buying it, and I intend to get with you in the future for any needs or improvements I plan.

    For those that have never been in a boosted Miata, you just can't believe the power that is there to be had. Big fun.

    Mazda needs to make a factory SC (M62) powered MX5. A limited addition would become a cult classic much like the Buick GS cars. Randy have fun but be careful, you have a little monster!
