+/- 10 hp (OT miata content)

My son got a decal cutter and he has been making some, and today he made this one, it totally cracked me up:

I told him he should make a design and submit it to blipshift. Something like:

1 row with 3 icons representing Cone filter, Exhaust, and a Disk or something that represents an ecu tune
2nd row that says: +/- 15 HP Guaranteed

He is very creative

The Racing Beat intake... definitely not -10hp! I Had it with their exahust and these cheapo OBX ceramic headers. What an awesome deep grumble on start up. Completely different car.
I also upgraded to the KYB adjustables, FM springs and rear mounts (must do) and BBS RK's on Azenis. Oh and the full Racing Beat aero kit with low profile headlights. Can't believe I sold that car because I convinced myself that having two roadsters was excessive.... #1 dumbest thing I ever convinced myself of.

p.s.
That intake gets really dirty. Definitely need to clean it regularly.
