Miata Mailing List: May 1998, Message #268

Check out Manuel Chau's dyno data at
<http://www.miata.net/misc/dynoday/normal.htm>. He's putting 106 HP to the
ground in his 1.6 with only porting and polishing.   :-o)   Also, a guy I
trust says there's about 20% more power lurking in there just waiting for
porting and polishing. Valve swaps and custom bronze-aluminum seats can find
some more, albeit at a higher price.
