Texas De-noober!!
How is it going? Hope everyone is weathering the recession. I am from the DFW area. South of FW. I have a '96 SM that I am wanting to boost. I instruct for several organizations and have decided not to race my SM. I built it from my personal street car and it is in pristine condition. Since I am only going to use it for DE's, it makes sense to boost it. Still trying to figure out s/c vs Turbo and what would be best for my purpose. I plan on learning much from this forum. All advice is appreciated. I figure that once my car is boosted, I can go play with the high HP cars...

turbo ftw. none of my friends that had supercharger's were very happy with them. throwing belts, bad gas mileage, were just a few. i'm sure there are some that have had good experiences, but i haven't met any. whenever you see a supercharger for sale, the guy says ''it's great, but i'm going turbo, i just want a little more power''

Welcome over here. You're gonna want to put your location in your profile and update your signature to include your car specs.
I don't know why more Miatas aren't just running EVANs waterless. Cheaper and easier than alot of the resolutions.
I'm doing this if I have any more issues on track.

Pound for pound turbo is going to give you more power. I haven't seen any successful ones myself either but I'm sure that people have done it successfully before. You will need to keep a careful eye on the engine temperature due to how small the engine block is it's will overheat faster than a larger block size. A bigger radiator can help with cooling issues.
