Some folks shoe horn 5.0 litre Ford eng into Miata too.
That must be fun.

With 2200 lbs anything 200HP will make it fly!

Another bloke says he tried to Dyno his C32 but the rear brake just wouldn't let go. It only reg 250HP and brakes cut in, smells burning rubber!
But he said he can keep up with M5 so his car isn't under performing.

Sometimes a bigger engine C55 may upset the f/r balance then harder to drive too.
