    O.K. I have to settle an argument here. I want to know from people who REALLY know which is more effective/efficient. Is it bar and plate or tube and fin? This means you Tufte, Henry,Cartman. Feel free to chime in.

                Bar and plate offers twice the cooling and the flow of a tube and fin.

                  They both work fine, im sure if you made 300 hp on a tube and fin youd make within 10 hp with bar and plate, Now if you were Flowing say 30+ psi id say bar and plate would cool the air much better... ive used both seem to work fine, ask nick thompson and im sure he'd say the same..

                          Ya I have a extra top mount now, since I now run a bar plate fmic 🙂 Lemme know if you want it. A hood scoop on the Miata would look pretty sweet. Oh ya I also have core rotary you can send in for a rebuild when your ready to take the Miata to the next level and return to Mazdas performance roots.
                          Also this sounds like a argument you and Justin would have, is it...?

                              I need to know what brand of wheels they are. If you can't tell, I may have to look them over real good to be able to determine if I can get the right ones.

                                Aight, I will see if I can see anything that will tell me. Otherwise maybe I will take a wheel into TP and see if you can figure it out.
