Performance tuning company BBR has released a new tuning package for Mazda MX-5 models that lifts power to 201hp without resorting to turbocharging or supercharging.
Compatible with 2005 onwards Mazda MX-5 Mk3 / 3.5 / 3.75 (NC) models, the Super 200 tuning package squeezes an additional 43hp and 19 lb-ft (26Nm) of torque from the 2.0-liter engine.
The Super 200 kit includes a high flow panel air filter, stainless steel 4 into 1 exhaust manifold, high performance intake and exhaust camshafts, 3.5-inch (89mm) diameter branded tailpipes with stainless steel clamps, ECU remap and BBR badges for front wings and bootlid.
BBR says that in-house dyno testing has revealed that the Super 200 upgrade boosts peak power to 201hp at 7,450 rpm, resulting in over 180 hp at the rear wheels. Furthermore, standard power output is exceeded at every point in the rev range, with strong gains obtained from 3,000 rpm upwards. Peak torque is also improved to 166 lb-ft (225 Nm) at 4,000 rpm, some 1,100 rpm lower than the standard car.
BBR hasn’t released performance numbers, but says the Mazda MX-5 upgraded with the Super 200 package “feels much quicker and far more willing, eager and exciting to drive than ever before.” The Super 200 package fully complies with the UK MOT emissions and runs on either 98 or 95 octane fuel.
Priced at £2,195 ($3,684) including installation but not tax/VAT, or at £1,695 ($2,845) for a DIY version, the package will be available via a select number of Mazda UK dealers.
