Mazda MX-5 NC 1.8 — 180 HP Performance Package

Unlock the hidden potential of your MX-5 NC 1.8.
This upgrade package is engineered for drivers seeking sharper throttle response, more power, and a more connected driving experience—without sacrificing reliability. Delivering a true 180 horsepower from the 1.8 L engine, it transforms the NC into a far more responsive and engaging roadster while maintaining OEM reliability.


Package Includes

4-1 Stainless Steel Headers
High-flow stainless headers designed to maximize exhaust scavenging, reduce back-pressure, and unleash a freer-revving engine. Expect stronger mid-range torque, smoother top-end power, and a crisp, motorsport-inspired exhaust note.

Cold Air Intake (CAI)
Performance intake system supplying cooler, denser air for improved combustion and sharper throttle response, while delivering a deeper induction sound.

MazdaEdit Tuning Suite with Cable (Included)
Complete MazdaEdit Lite tuning package with USB interface cable—providing full read/write access to the OEM ECU, datalogging capability, and live tuning support. This allows seamless calibration changes and data monitoring for precise tuning and diagnostics.

Stage 1 Custom ECU Remap
A bespoke ECU calibration developed in-house for this package. Optimized ignition, fueling, and throttle mapping deliver a consistent, reliable 180 HP output with smoother power delivery and sharper response.

Non-VVT Stage 2 Camshafts (Stock-Safe)
Specially profiled camshafts for the non-VVT 1.8 engine. Increased lift and duration enhance mid-range pull, top-end breathing, and throttle response—fully compatible with OEM pistons and valve springs.


Key Benefits

  • 180 HP Power Output – Stronger acceleration, responsiveness, and top-end pull.

  • Improved Engine Efficiency – Optimized combustion for smoother torque delivery.

  • Sharper Throttle Response – Immediate pedal reaction and linear power curve.

  • Stock-Compatible Reliability – No internal engine upgrades required.

  • Track & Street Ready – Perfectly balanced between daily use and performance.

  • Enhanced Sound – Aggressive yet refined tone from the 4-1 header system.


Why Choose the 180 HP Performance Package

The NC 1.8 is celebrated for its balance and handling, but lacks punch in stock form. This package brings the engine to life—more torque, more top-end, more sound—while maintaining the reliability expected of a daily-driven MX-5. Each component is selected and tuned to work in harmony for seamless performance.

Experience the true character of the NC 1.8 at 180 HP—responsive, reliable, and exhilarating.
