That ain't gonna fly with Americans, regardless of how much boost you slap on it.
Edit: JDM Miata has 1.6L or 2.0L.
US has 2.0L. Unless Honda wants to slap on a larger engine, 0.66L (or even a 1.3L turbo) is pretty sad for US consumers.

Yup. The general public complains about the twins being underpowered. Plus an engine like that MT is the only option to have some acceleration unless you through a super short final drive in with an AT.
We are talking niche of the niche market in North America. As much as I would love one for a fun toy I don't think it would ever happen here.
