Mazda might claim 116 hp but manufacturers claims are usually based on flywheel power, not power to the ground. A 94 Miata with a bone stock 1.8, which is claimed by Mazda to make 128 hp, will actually make 96 whp and 92 wtq all day long on a Dyno Dynamics. That's from the mouth of Ed York who spends a bunch of time prepping SM cars in his shop. A bone stock 1.6 will be closer to 90 whp, maybe 95 if you're on a Dynojet. Not sure how much a K&N would help if it's still in front of the stock restrictive AFM, but the cat & exhaust have to be worth a couple ponies. It might not be crazy powerful but at least you didn't blow up your diff on the launch. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
