The alpine is turbo so its not possible to be as fun or engaging as a naturally aspirated or supercharged car. Its not even close its apples and oranges

Did you do anything to stiffen up the Hood ? nice driving would you consider ND2 with kinamatic posture control with same upgrades it would be intereesing match up. I think Lotus driver was worried about how much he forked out for his Exige compared to the MX5 ND BBR upgrades !!
@mikescib7798 2 жыл бұрын
Hood is all standard. The Nd2 with the BBR kit goes to 220bhp over the 200bhp for the ND1, not sure you would notice the difference unless you drove them back to back tbh.

I know it's a old post just wondering how you liked the cup2s? I personally didn't like them and preferred the ps4s since they got heat much easier and gave a much more linear give at the edge of grip. The cup2s would hold more G but gave out completely once you went over. I don't have a miata (yet) this was on a c7 z06
