Hi

For the benefit of anyone considering this, I recently had the BBR 'Super 180' conversion done on my mk 3.5 MX5 2.0 using the 'supersport' exhaust. I have to say the results are fantastic and the noise is great, it takes a bit of getting used to, but the extra power delivery really transforms the car into a 'sports car'. Okay, it isn't a cheap fix, but if you have a decent car and are planning on keeping it then you can really unlock the car's potential and the quality of the parts etc. is excellent.

I hope this helpful in case anyone else is interested as actual user reviews for this seem rare based on the searches I did prior to going ahead with this....

I don't have a Mk3 but am interested nevertheless.
What does this involve i.e. what parts are fitted and what does it do for the car?

Essentially you get a completely new bespoke exhaust system from manifold to back box and a rechip, both equate to about 10bhp each, so a 20bhp increase overall on the 2.0 engine, about a day in the workshop.

Sounds good. What sort of price is that? With a full exhaust system it can't be cheap.
