Well just curious who would win my car with my mods or a mazda mx5 mazaspeed. My fiance's boss has one and they look fast and he said they have like 240hp and are turbo charged.

From Edmunds.com:


2005 Mazda MAZDASPEED MX-5 Miata
2 Dr Turbo Convertible

...curb weight of only 2,529 pounds...

...1.8-liter, turbocharged and intercooled four-cylinder engine makes 178 horsepower and 166 pound-feet of torque. A beefed-up six-speed manual transmission drives the rear wheels through a Bosch torque-sensing limited-slip differential...

...4.30 axle ratio...

I think 1/4 mile times are high 13's but trapping at like 88mph.

8.5 pounds of boost... 0-60 in 6.7 sec

My friend has a Miata that could wax a lot of people on here and it's not even MazdaSpeed.

Hopefully you take this guy, but the odds are against you—good luck, though!

Looks like it'll be close from a gig... depends on how good a take off you get... but the real blood bath will be from a roll! That's what I'd go with... Blow him away. Quick acceleration, but your top speed power should blow him away. My mods, i took a Evo IX MR from a Roll... you aren't THAT far away from my ability. Go for it... and TAPE IT! We wanna see it!
