The TDR Super Cool Air Flow Kit relocates various engine bay components to reduce engine under hood temperatures. On the 2006-2015 MX-5, there is a very narrow middle section between the battery box and the air filter box to remove heat. For the most part, this design works efficiently.  However, reducing engine under the hood temperatures will improve overall engine performance.  Air conditioning will also improve when there is less heat radiating on the condenser coil.

What the TDR Super Cool Air Flow Kit does

Our testing was conducted on two similar NC models at a local road racing track.  Temperatures were around 85° F.  Both models had a RoadsterSport Header, TDR Insulated Heat Shield and our TDR Super Cool Air Intake.  Our second model included our engine control unit ECU bracket, battery relocation kit and removal of the restrictive panels covering the radiator outlet area.  During a 20 minute track session, coolant temperatures were monitored through the OBD2 port.  Results were an amazing 15F degree reduction in temperature.  The stock configuration ran around 200° F while the relocation setup, providing better airflow ran 185° F.

What the TDR Super Cool Air Flow Kit includes

• ECU relocation bracket
• Washer fluid bottle relocation bracket
• Battery relocation bracket with Battery quick disconnect
• PowerSteering relocation hose and clamps
• Plus all the hardware, extension wire, zip ties, and air delfector.

Our relocation setup requires using an aftermarket cold air intake setup such as our highly efficient TDR Super Cool Air Intake.  Under the factory air filter box, the ECU is mounted on top of the radiator. Our ECU relocation bracket moves the ECU to the fuse box area, away from the heat.  The washer fluid bottle* and power steering fluid reservoir are also relocated to more ideal locations.

Our battery relocation setup has the option of either a supplied small AGM maintenance free battery or an optional bracket in which you supply a battery from a 1990-2005 (NA/NB) Miata.  The NA/NB batteries are available at most auto parts stores.

The battery is relocated to the fender frame area and includes a battery disconnect switch.  The battery disconnect switch maintains a strong battery if you don’t drive your Miata every day and provides anti-theft protection as well as an easy disconnect for servicing. The small AGM battery saves about 15 lbs over the OEM battery.  The NA/NB is about 5-7 lbs lighter.

Special not for RHD and Canadian MX-5 owners

*This kit has been tested on left-hand drive U.S.cars only.   This kit should work on right-hand drive cars or Canadian cars with the exception on the washer fluid bottle relocation.
