It was only a matter of time. What surprises me is that it was so little time.

I was not worried, Keith said it would fit, so I figured it would. Now, lets see if the hood closes.

Couple of turbos on top of the LS and it might even catch a V6 Mustang!

Oh my, that looks like a lot of fun. I'm betting that precious weight distribution isn't affected much either, especially if they mounted the transmission to the differential a la Corvette.

Man, that was some kinda quick. Wonder if it'll outrun a BR-Z that's had some STi DNA injected? I'm kinda thinking... no.

Won't need it... 460whp has been made on the stock motor.

I think the diesel Miata has less of the engine in front of the wheels.

Wait, the BRZ motor made that with boost?

Even if it did, I'll bet a chunk of change it won't live long at that HP level. Which, to me, makes it a moot point.

Not possible. But it would be neat to compare
