K&N Typhoon Intake System Mazda MX5 Mk2/2.5 Reviews

4.9 Rating 46 Reviews
Read MX5parts Reviews

The Typhoon™ Air Intake System is a free-flowing mandrel-bent aluminum tube induction system designed to provide cooler, denser air to the engine for increased performance. It is a direct replacement for the restrictive OE air box and the constrictive factory air filter and inlet tract. Using the most advanced airflow management technology, K&N has optimized the flow characteristics of the Typhoon Air Intake System to complement it's high-flow Filtercharger®.Thanks to the massive number of these filter kits that we have sold in the last year we have managed to re-negotiate our price with K&N and are very pleased to pass on the saving to our customers.Fits all Mazda MX5 Mk2 and 2.5 models, 1998>

très bien fabriqué, bien adapté pour le modèle de voiture et un super son lors d'accélération à bonne charge (et des talon-pointe à faire jouir), petit bémol, si vous souhaitez neutraliser le reniflard de vapeur d'huile, ils n'ont pas pensez à vous mettre une durite "bouchon" pour combler le trou ... dommage.

Best aftermarket part on my miata!This works perfectly with my "active" driving style!Things that stand out:*No sound change below 2000rpm (good)*Super simple installation, max 25min!*Looks good! *Perfect sportscars sound above 3500rpm!*Expensive (negative) *Weak mounting bracket? Time will tell...A must buy for all MX5 enthusiasts!

Ordered late on Monday evening and the kit was delivered prompt on Wednesday morning. 45 minutes later and my 1.8 Nevada is sounding sweeter than ever. The sound from 2nd gear through to 5th is awesome. Throttle response seems sharper too (despite what the cynics say). Fantastic service from MX5 Parts. I'm sure I'll be ordering from you again.

Excellent product will be matching this with the dual mx5 stainless steel exhaust which is apparently a good combination. The K&N filter is good as this gives a good noise when accelerating, but not a cruising speed. Easy to fit, only one issue i had, on my mk 2 1998. To remove the original main filter housing i needed to loosen and remove the washer fluid unit, as this was obstructing one of the bolts. This was not a problem, but you may need to do this if you have my model, as this was not specified in the instructions.

Quality piece of kit. Delivered next day. The instructions look a little daunting and suggest 90 mins to install. Honestly, this took less than half hour. When the old system is removed, assemble the new kit and it will all become obvious. The performance is much better
