  • Why reroute?

    The B series engine in the Mx5 was designed for a fwd car. As with all inline 4 cyl engines, coolant entered one one end of the head and exited the other end in the fwd application. This simple path is the most efficient way to extract heat from the head. Mazda turned the engine 90° and tucked it up against the firewall. This meant moving the coolant exit to the front, the same end of the head as the inlet. This poor flow path is the primary cause for overheating which is so common in the 90-05 Mx5. This reroute has a carefully engineered low profile adapter for the back of the head to retain the original front to back coolant path. Just this one modification will significantly reduce coolant temps.

  • Block off plates

    If you plan to remove the water neck, you can use the cylinder head block off plate or use the block off plate for the OEM water neck on the front of the engine.
