MAZDA MX5 SE V THE MX5SP

[billybunter]

Hi all
MY names Graham and I'm in Orange NSW and just joined the club today after being referred to this site from a member at mazda_speed .com ( thanks)
A few days ago I purchase a one owner Sunlight Silver MX5 SE with 49,000klm, So far it appears to be going fine but I feel when compared to my previous cars - it lacks power!
Earlier today I read a report on the web on the SP version and power wise it appered equal to my other unreliable cars ( an Alfa GTV 3.0 - BMW Z4 and Porsche Boxster) All gone, and nothing but trouble and a bottonless money pit.
I read several reports on the SE and all were positive............. more importantly I was impressed with the way it handles, brakes and steers ( no tramlining) so I bought one. Now just need a bit more power,
I figure that approaching the 60 year of age barrier times against me and I need more speed.
Big question! ..........Has my SE the get up and go to equal the power of the SP and what is required.
thanks all Graham
