GT2 Supercharger Pro Kit
New Mazda MX-5 continues philosophy of a historic lightweight sports car that exist for a very long time. HKS recommends superchargers as a power-up menu for cars with N/A engines. HKS had already successed in power-up of N/A engines such as 350Z, S2000 and CR-Z.The MX-5 power-up menu also uses HKS GT2 supercharger to make possible a comfortable yet exciting sports driving.
HKS GT2 supercharger system is now available for owners of latest model MAZDA MX-5 with 2.0 L engine. The new HKS GT2 supercharger for MX-5 is complete kit that takes full advantage of the potential of the stock N/A engine. At the heart of this system is the high efficiency centrifugal rotor assembly with an intercooler for lower inlet air temperatures. This is assisted by an air intake box which further shields heat and reduces intake noise. Centrifugal Supercharger systems increase boost with engine rpm, delivering smooth power delivery and an engaging driving experience which is in line with the manufacturers original concept for the car: "Jinba Ittai" (THE ONENESS OF HORSE AND RIDER)
HKS
In October 1973, two talented and spirited young engineers had a vision; to design and build high performance engines and components that major OE manufacturers could not or would not produce.Led by Hiroyuki Hasegawa, a former engineer for Yamaha Motor Company, and his partner Goichi Kitagawa, the two secured a capital infusion from Sigma Automotive Co., Ltd. (hence the name “HKS ”), and began tuning gasoline powered engines in a dairy-farming shed at the foot of Mount Fuji in Japan. A year later, Mr. Hasegawa designed and built the first aftermarket turbocharger for passenger cars and has never looked back.
HKS pioneered the Japanese aftermarket performance industry by delivering a host of exciting new products, including the first commercially available electronic turbo timer and boost controller. Other early products included piggy-back fuel computers and sophisticated fuel management tools. Clearly HKS was Driving Performance trends for Japanese vehicles.
