The perfect kit for the M45 supercharger. Each part fits well and there’s no need for any modification to the brackets etc. The materials and design are top quality!

Great kit, fitted all very easily following BOFI instructions. Fitted to MK1 1.6 91 with PAS. Stock crank pulley (130mm and stock m45 pulley, 65.5mm? Booked in for tuning, and the tuner will fit and set up the bosch ev14 injectors. Car is currently on stock 230cc injectors but it drives brilliantly and sounds great even if I can't floor it for fear of 100%ing my injectors. I have spotted 6psi of boost at times already, which is reassuring. I modified the bofi bypass valve silicone hose with a 90 degree mandrel bend to provide room for a second throttle at the supercharger inlet. I found with the 130mm crank, power-steering and Supercharger pulleys, the provided gates 4pk1260 belt a little long and I had rubbing issues with lots of belt dust. I managed to fit a gates 4pk1245 belt by bolting on the auto-tensioner idler pulley last after the belt was routed, which was quite tight, I then rotated this pulley to provide max tension (as per BOFI instructions). The tensioning pulley that you move with a bolt still required a little tightening. This gives a lot more clearance between the belt and itself where before they were passing closer than necessary IMO. BOFIs customer service has been great for the various parts I have ordered from them alongside this Salon Kit, cannot recommend enough.

Easy way to improve the power of your mx5. The kit is compound of high quality aluminium cast parts and machined brackets. The installation is extremely easy to do it, in few hours you can install it. The only point to improve it is the inlet. Salon should provide an option with the flange for a throttle body. Without It the supercharger is very loud. That's the reason to not give stars.
