Thanks for visiting my website describing the modifications I have done on my '99 Miata. Most of the modifications are for improving handling and power through the use of a Jackson Racing M45 Supercharger.

A lot of my testing is at Motorsport Ranch, a private road course with 1.7 miles of Formula 1 approved asphalt. A good friend of mine Tommy Boy and I are the intimidators of the track. Nothing more fun than kicking butt on Porsches, BMWs, Corvette's and even a few Vipers on the track. Of course they usually have to give us a courtesy pass on the straights, but we are working on that.

Please enjoy my sight and of course, more to follow soon. If you ever have any questions, please email me and I would be glad to give help in any way.

A SUPERCHARGED ENGINE BAY

We are currently using the M45 Jackson Racing Supercharger producing 186 HP and 162 Torque to the rear wheels. Thats about 220 HP at the crank compared to 140 HP stock Miata. The sound of a supercharger is addictive, you can't keep your foot out of it!

Some ask why I did not go with a turbo? Simple, I like driving at the track and even 1 second of lag is to late! A turbo may have more horsepower and torque, but it is not as easy to modulate say in the turns.

Next step will be the M62 from BR Performance. This blower can produce about a 1/3 more air flow at similar boost levels. Should be around 220 HP and 200 Torque at the rear wheels. Ooooo, can't wait!!!
