everythings possible...find a shop, or you could just wait around 5 months or so when the companies that are working on a kit get them out.......which i hope it doesnt take longer than that but we'll see.

I think you might be able to get the hardware to fit, but the software might be an issue. I don't think Hondata makes a K-Pro for a 06 EX. I believe you would probably need some type of engine tuning system, or at least a reflash designed for the application.

Just my 2 cents.

Aye, just search the web for Monster Miata's as well. Those are freaking SCARY.

But to the OP, yes, it is possible for you to buy everything, but I would recommend going to a shop that knows how to tune. Expect to pay a good amount of GREEN for it.
