All the recent talk of v6s, v8s and turbos made me realize that I should
write in with some supercharger info.

I recently talked to someone (who will remain nameless) who drove Norman
Garrett's supercharger Miata.  You can see a picture of it, without many
details, in the summer issue of the Mag.  The person who drove it was
-very- impressed (blown away?) by the power and the way the car felt.
Rumor has it that the kit will sell for $2.0k-2.2k, and should be a very
clean and relatively simple installation.  140-150hp???  I find this a lot
more exciting than a turbo - conceptually I like the idea of a
supercharger better.  Anyone have any other info?  I'm definitely waiting
until this hits the market before considering anything else.

-Jeff.
