Mazda MX-5 Turbo Conversion Kits
The very best components for the very best install….
High Quality | Quick-Install | OEM Looks & Reliability
Being a sister company of M-Tech Automotive – the UK’s renowned drive-in/drive-out MX-5 Turbo Conversion centre, and now the exclusive producer and retailer of the G19 EVO2 Cast Manifolds – we have created the ultimate Mazda MX-5 Turbocharger DIY Kit. Using the very best CFD Cast Manifold, Genuine TD04 Turbo Chargers, M-Tech 3-piece inter-cooler systems and of course the ME221 ECU. Go for a just a manifold and downpipe, a full DIY kit of parts, or a full drive-in/drive-out install – the choice is yours. With easy finance packages, boost won’t hurt the wallet either!
WHY USE OUR KITS?
Quality
The most important factor here, is the quality of the parts we use. We have been working alongside M-Tech (next door in fact!) in tuning and developing their drive-in/drive-out turbo conversions since 2014. This means we are using the very same components they use, tried, tested, proven over and over again in over 150 conversions carried out to date. This means above all else, reliability. When installed & tuned correctly, there should be no extra requirements when using your car beyond annual servicing – giving peace of mind for tens of thousands of miles….
Performance
Our bolt-on complete kits will allow you realise around 180-250bhp (stock clutch permitting). With a clutch upgrade (along with mapping) you can safely run up to 250bhp on stock engine internals. Go for a TD05 turbo and a forged engine, and 330+bhp is easily in sight! A lower spool than the larger Garrett Units – grin enducing performance!
Support
The other big factor is support. With UK offices and full time support staff at the other end of the phone, means we can help you get your cars up and running on the pre-installed base-maps – we even include a startup and sanity check over a remote connection should you need it, getting you ready for a visit to your local rolling road for a final polish of the map.
MANIFOLD & DOWNPIPE
We utilise the G19 EVO2 Cast Manifold in our kits, proven to flow better than competitors, meaning more power, less engine stress. Couple that with our unique, in-house designed 2.5″ CNC Mandrel bent downpipes means an accurate, trouble-free fitment, with improved flow over monocular hand fabricated units. Our downpipes are also fully TIG welded for longevitiy, and use a quality flexi for years of happy boosting.
TURBOCHARGER
Our manifold, down-pipe and inter-cooler kits are designed to work with the IHI TD04 Pattern turbocharger (as fitted to UK model Subaru Imprezas), and as a result, we stock genuine units. They also arrive pre “clocked”, meaning everything will line up once bolted on – not like the Garrett Models competitors use which may require custom fabrication for a good fit). They can deliver up to around 280bhp with ease, and being a modern turbo, also spool early – giving that OEM feel to drive-ability.
Of course if you want more, the TD04 can be replaced with the TD05 unit, as well as standard upgrade options such as billet compressor wheels and different AR housings.
FUEL INJECTORS
For fuelling, we use genuine Bosch EV14 Injectors. Complete with MX-5 specific inserts and plug adulators means a painless install. With over 600cc/min feul flow rate, these injectors are good for up to around 350bhp, yet still deliver a steady idle and excellent fuel atomisation as demanded by a Teir 1 OEM supplier that Bosch supply.
We are the Europe stockist and supplier of the FlowForce injector kits – which means an excellent product from the states is now readily available here in the UK!
ENGINE MANAGEMENT
Of course, we use the Plug-In ME221 ECU as part of our kits. The premier ECU for the MX-5, as used and recommended by all the top tuners in the UK. Fitting the factory casing makes the installation a doddle, and we are always on hand if you need support.
We pre-load a suitable base-map so you’re car will start and run, ready for you to arrange tuning at your nearest rolling road. The ECUs powerful feature-set can be used as your project expands, offering advanced strategies such as closed loop boost control, anti-lag and launch control.
Intercoolers
FASTENERS & FITTINGS
Everything is provided, from the basic nuts and bolts, jubilee clips and water lines through to the custom braided steel oil supply hose, inconel exhaust studs, turbo gaskets and Mikalor clamps – its all there for a pain free install from start to finish.
Also, every part of the kit is labelled to help you identify what you need as you progress through the printed install guide.
MANUAL & SUPPORT
Our 30 page, printed install guide covers the full process from stripping the stock parts, fitting the new parts, stage-by-stage checks and finally getting the car running. Also, included with our complete kits, is a 30-minute TeamViewer session (if needed) whereby we can dial into your laptop and carry out a remote sign off of the ECUs settings, sensors and help you with the first start. Also, at any point in the build, we are on hand, 9-5 Weekdays with dedicated UK phone support.
If you get really stuck, we also offer full install options here at CDMSport.

Ordered before 1pm, fitted this weekend.
In-stock parts ordered before 1pm are dispatched the same day. UK and Ireland typically arrive next morning, worldwide as quick as three days. Times do vary, but that can mean the part is on the car within a few days and she is back out blasting the roads by the weekend.

Straight answers
The questions you were about to open a chat about.
How do I know it will fit my car?
Send us your chassis code or your reg in the chat and we will confirm before you spend anything. If you order and it turns out to be the wrong part, we swap it.
“Had a mix up with the item description (order wrong part) they was quick to email me and see what part I was meant to order and substituted it for no extra cost!”
Bradley Page, verified customer, 31 Jan 2025
When will it actually arrive?
In stock and ordered before 1pm, it leaves the same day. UK and Ireland is usually next day, occasionally 1 to 3 days. Europe 1 to 5 days, rest of world 3 to 5 days on express.
If something is not in stock, we will email you right away with an ETA and any available substitutes. On the rare occasion it does not work out, we will happily refund your order.
Will I get stung for customs or import VAT?
No. The price you pay on our website is what it will cost to be delivered to your door. You will not receive any surprise surcharges after ordering.
What if I change my mind?
30 days on all stock items, full refund on the parts. If you ordered the wrong thing we will help you get to the right one for as little money as possible. We have been there.
What warranty do I get?
Everything on our website is covered by the standard manufacturer's warranty.
If you ever need to claim, we fight your corner. We will do everything in our power to make sure you are looked after, rather than leaving you to argue with a manufacturer on your own.
Can I pay it off over a few months?
Yes. Klarna and Shop Pay Finance are both at checkout, so you can spread it without putting the build on hold.
Can I just ask someone what to buy?
That is the bit we are actually good at. We run our own race team and workshop, so you are talking to someone who has fitted it, broken it, and fitted it again. Hit the chat and tell us what the car is doing and what you want it to do.
