A must have for the Miata owner!,
This review is from: Mazda Miata Performance Handbook (Motorbooks Workshop) (Paperback)
Written by a member of the original design team, this book sheds light on the "right way" to modify your miata. Saved me from buying unneeded modifications!

Good read, but it does not make your Miata faster,

This review is from: Mazda Miata Performance Handbook (Motorbooks Workshop) (Paperback)
The "Performance Handbook" seems to be a little light on performance. A very good read for those of us who love the little cars, but it is more of an illustrated history than a "Performance Handbook."
The book does offer a good history on the car, from the first thoughts of bringing the roadster back to The U.S., but don't go fetch the tool box. You'll not need it. If you want to get your hands dirty and make your car zip around better, try Keith Tanner's "Miata MX-5 Performance Projects." Then get the tools out.
