A forced induction system designed specifically for the fourth-generation (ND2) Mazda MX-5 Miata to enhance its engine performance. It typically includes a turbocharger, exhaust manifold, intake piping, intercooler, and supporting components necessary for safe and reliable operation under increased boost. These kits are aftermarket products intended to substantially raise the horsepower and torque output of the vehicle’s engine.
The addition of this system can significantly improve the acceleration and overall driving experience of the vehicle. By forcing more air into the engine, it allows for greater combustion and thus, increased power. Historically, enthusiasts have sought such modifications to overcome perceived limitations in the factory engine’s output, especially for track days, autocross events, or simply for a more spirited driving feel. The effectiveness of the system is dependent on the quality of components, proper installation, and appropriate engine management tuning.
