As I am considering of doing MNR Vortx SDV with Mazda MX5 as donor. As I haven't done it before and was wondering how car the build and how good is MNR support ?

I would expect the MNR support to be as good as any of the others, at least.

However your question cannot be answered as the number of variables is considerable, e.g.-

How good are you at that sort of thing?
How good are your tools and facilities?
How much time can you put in each week?
DO you get fed-up easily?
How good is your problem solving?
What standard are you hoping to achieve? (good enough being a lot quicker than excellent)

Etc

Quite good with anything new come to me, have replaced a engine on Clio in the past with no prior knowledge of it and really enjoyed it (I was student that time so wanted to save money!)

Got most of tools and got double sized garage.

Hopefully will do it most evening when kids goes to bed !

Do I get fed up easily - probably will if spending on same problem for months !

My plan is to get 1.6 Eunos / MX-5 as donor and keep it all standard as possible and then upgrade to turbo conversion at later stage.
