    Yeah thy are! This car was originally auto so I had to get the box then get it swapped. Cost a fortune. Worth it though. Diffs have gone up too. I had one in my first mx5 but that was stolen and burned out and crushed. It's a 1.8l.
    Yeah the diff and box will hold 240 all day. Your clutch won't though.
    What engine do you have? What size turbo? I recommend a gt2560r from an s15.

    shit you haven't had much luck with cars!ha As far as I know I have a stage 1 clutch in mine so previous owner said when I bought it. He was planning on turboing it before he sold it. So might last a while! What's the best clutch out there for these?

    Mine is a 1.6, I got it with a td04 off an Impreza. It's in perfect condition so gonna go with that. Some guy called sturovo on one of the mx5 forums makes manifolds and downpipes to suit your needs, so gonna go with that.

    What ecu do you have?
