When Mazda launched the hugely successful MX-5 in 1989, they forgot one thing: serious power. With a mere 115bhp from the first model it was lively but it lacked real excitement and the punch to overtake with confidence. Thankfully Mazda pre-empted this complaint with what was hidden under the bonnet: the MK1 engine was lifted straight from the celebrated, turbo-charged Mazda 323 GTX.

The 323 engine was already a reliable and bullet proof unit which made it ideal for forced induction, so the Americans took up the challenge in the early 1990s; the Sebring Supercharger kits and Flyin' Miata Turbos that were developed soon turned a nice, little sports car into a performance demon. Horsepower on MK1 cars leapt to between 180 and 250bhp and the performance aftermarket flourished. Everybody could now drive a fast MX-5.

This forced induction technology has come on a long way in the last decade and has meant increased power, reliability and a range of user-controllable features. If you want another useful 60bhp for your car we can provide it; if you want a mighty MX-5 with 250bhp (and upwards) we can manage the transformation.

P5 has researched all the FI systems available and we only bring you the best: we're official UK distributors for the BR Performance MP62 supercharger kit and the Flyin' Miata turbo kit.
