[quote="StanTheMan" if you're looking at say 140rwkw or so. the NA8 would be a far better choice as a base car to start modding.

Thats not saying the NA6 is a bad car. There are lots of things which are stronger on an NA8 for medium mods.[/quote]

Well I am running an NA8 at 165kw and it's been running like this for years without a worry.
I hardly think it needs any more power either. Not for the tracks that i have been on at least

May as well get the NA8 if an MX5 hasn't been bought yet. When the mod bug hits you'll probably also want to upgrade other things like rear diff & chassis bracing both of which will cost you less to do in the long run if starting with an NA8 instead.
