Interesting to note that the exact same kind of threads have been going for 15-16 years now on the Miata net. Most of us gave up years ago on getting any measurable gains from intake and exhaust and just put 20psi to the intake side and shazaam, 300hp from 1.8 liters! I am new here and still havent found the right S but most of my friends are very reluctant to add forced induction on the Vtec like we do on the Miatas. Is this a real concern or imagined? The Miata benefits from being designed originally as a turbo engine for the GLC Turbo and so all the blocks were made that way. Above about 250hp though, you have to build up the internals some. Is the S still reliable at 8-10psi boost?
