Format:Paperback
If you own a Miata and are thinking of doing any performance upgrades of any kind - get this book first! There's a lot you can do to increase your Miata's performance, but there's also a lot you can do to really mess it up. Norman Garrett helped design the car, so he knows what he's talking about. He guides you through all the different systems and how they can best be improved, and warns you away from mistakes that so many owners make when buying aftermarket goodies. Keep this one close to your tool box!

This performance handbook is an outstanding 1st book for approaching upgrades to the Miata. It covers all years 90-99 and deals with nice, high level information. (it is not a step by step recipe, but takes you through various aspects of performance such as tire/wheels, intake, exhaust, suspension, etc.) Very well written, 'lightly' technical, great, great information with no BS and no hidden agendas (ads, etc.) Easy to read, laid out nicely. Also has sections on racing Miatas and appearance items. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is considering doing any performance upgrade to their beloved Miata!
