Is yours a 1.6 or 1.8 David? Making me jealous with all this fun talk!

Apparently, there's not much difference between 1.6 and 1.8. I've heard of MX-5 fans going to great pains and expence to get a 1.8. When they succeed, get disappointed with the amount of pull anyway.

There isn't really IMO (if you're comparing an early 1.6, post '94 Euro market cars are a slightly different story), the benefits of the 1.8 over the early 1.6 come with the stronger diff, better brakes and more bracing as standard.
