GHiT 0674: Ecotec Miata's with Cameron Recknagel

One of the most raced cars in history is the Miata. Vicki loves hers, especially when on track. EcotecMiata enables you to take you stock Miata engine out and substitute in a EcoTec motor that bolts right in and with a few other items, you can increase your Miata's horsepower by nearly double or more. We wanted to learn a bit more about this and Cameron Recknagel was kind enough to share a bit of his time away from the shop and this looks very exciting.
