Yep, a piggyback system is what'd id need
You might be able to find a used Flyin' Miata Voodoo Box but they don't make them anymore. I don't know of any other piggyback systems made specifically for a Miata.
Sometimes you can find a deal on good used turbo stuff but it's a crapshoot.
You could also get a plug-and-play ECU like Megasquirt and swap everything back to stock for the emissions test. Or at least swap in the stock ECU and injectors and wire the wastegate open so it doesn't make boost.
These have all crossed my mind, but then it starts to feel like an endless project. I guess I just wanted to vent about the cost to add horsepower cuz damn it's crazy
Definitely. This is why I ended up selling my Miata and getting a WRX.
