RoadsterSport MAX TORQUE 4-2-1 Standard Length MX5 Stainless Steel Header - BRIGHT SILVER CERAMIC FINISH

YES, confirmed fit both ND1 and ND2

It was believed to be said originally by Enzo Ferrari, and repeated later by Carroll Shelby, that Horsepower sells cars, torque wins races. The reason is quite simple, TORQUE is what helps you leap out of tight turns and pushes you away from stoplights, etc. In autocross and track events any advantage at the start of the slower sections is advantage you carry to the end of each section, and torque is what you actually feel pushing you back in the seat. With that in mind, our headers here use a 4-2-1 layout which puts less emphasis on peak hp at top of rpms that you rarely use, and more emphasis on max low and mid range TORQUE that you can use every day, and for victory on race weekends. With the new generation Miata the factory went 4-2-1 on header layout for the first time, this is a much higher flowing version of the same 4-2-1 layout to give you the biggest torque curve possible in a standard length header.

Limited Edition Ceramic Coated. Our regular version is polished stainless, which will bronze and blue in response to the heat of use. As a result, got some requests to do bright silver ceramic coating over the polished stainless, which improves long term appearance and performance (about 3% better dyno results with the ceramic coating). Fits both LHD and RHD, manual and automatic.
