for the note, my friend with his KW Miata just ordered a new LSD, even the factory LSD cannot keep up with the added power so I cannot even imagine driving without one, specifically at the track..
I think the new Miata is a great car except the power, too bad they were really close to bring a game changer car, all they need is a proper hi-revving 2 liter engine (like a Civic SI or FA20) that can make around ~200hp and that's it not some crazy power since with its weight advantage it would be a clear winner (Even close to Elise territory) but instead they chose to limit the already less powerful HP output (167hp )..
Like I said earlier, I think they were using the FT86 as a benchmark and wanted to go a notch above and leave it there.. Shame :/
