What a blast the road was. Super fun. Talked to another Miata guy at the shop there.

Car performed great. The 2.5L was noticeable coming off the corners (and there are many of them!)

 

Here is a picture and a cool sign I got.

3 days after the swap I left for a 2,100 mile roundtrip to the Tail of the Dragon with 22 of those being hard miles. Car performed great. Very happy.

Car is surprisingly comfortable on these long drives. Longest drive in this car since buying it in Missouri 5 years ago.

I'm going down to the Dragon for Miatas At The Gap the first week of August.  Anyone alos going and wants to tag along your more than welcome.  I'm going to take 2 days to get to the Gap and will take back roads most of the way.
