Power to weight ratio has always been a promising factor in high performance race cars.  "Mazda Miata, meet V8, V8, this is Miata."  Power to weight ratio check, "ALL GOOD!" The question of "what's the most power I can put in a car and what's the most weight I can shave off" is asked by every tuner out there. One man has accomplished this in a big way and I am proud to present to you Johnny Cichowski! He took the idea of putting the power of a space shuttle(V8) into a lawn mower(Mazda Miata)! A little over exaggerated but long story short his "Monster" is just that.  Miatas are pure bred, fun, small, sporty cars. They have amazing handling abilities and are super fun to drive. Lightweight and very nimble is what makes these cars so great. Upgrading suspension for better handling is no issue here but, the issue is making power. It's small engine can take mods and build a little more but Johnny took a look at that in a different angle. Why not put a V-8 in it?  Through lots of time, patience, and love, he has accomplished something many would not think is possible; a pure bred, steroid injected, sports car. Here's what he has to say about it.
