i think the problem 1st of all is the older version are 1.6 i think and its pretty underpowered ?
but the current 1.8 and the new turbocharged version should be a hell lot better.. yeah as long it has LSD, should be a fun drift softtop :)

:) Insert an aftermarket supercharger into the 1.6 engine might b good enough....my 2 cents ...

MX-5 has viscious lsd.... so probably need to change the lsd to an aftermarket unit. Yeah i think 1.6L is pretty underpowered. For those hardcore mx5 fans, can consider 13B swaps.
