Turbocharged 1995 Mazda Miata<\/h1>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

This turbocharged 1995 Mazda Miata, known as “Blueberry”, belongs to my wife, but I do all the work on it. We bought it in 2018 with many modifications already performed by the original owner. I performed a lot of over-due maintenance and repairs, as well as some cosmetic improvements, and I even had to make some adjustments to the custom engine calibration for the turbo system to fix some stalling and unstable idling issues. This is a summer-time cruiser that we occasionally take Autocross racing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
