I've decided to keep it. I'm selling my Alpina (running costs are just too high) and tuning the MX5.
Plans are:
Rebuild the engine with forged internals.
MS2 from Reverant
Artech or Absurdflow V band manifold and downpipe.
Borg Warner EFR 6255 or 6258
Intercooler kit
EV14 Injectors
Wideband
Decent tyres & new wheels.
Uprate the suspension (again )
Roll cage/bar
Brakes from a 1.8
Work starts February.
A few pictures.

Yep, twice
Best part is when you finish & realise you trapped the window zip between the metal frame & rain rail!
