A DE would be all the power i would want for the time being. MX5s are light and i feel it would be much harder to adapt to a turbo straight off the bat.
I dunno, if im ever any good at drifting (which i doubt) i would consider it. Otherwise im happy with my stock engine.
Turbos dont make great cars ALL the time
Its just me ^.^
