The MPI Automotive FX-353 is a set of extractors listed to fit the Mazda MX-5 NA 1.8-litre DOHC, November 1993 to 1997. It replaces the factory exhaust manifold at the head with a tubular extractor design.

What's an extractor and what does it change?

An extractor, or header, replaces the cast manifold bolted to the cylinder head with a tubular set, giving each port its own runner before they merge — the aim being to reduce the back-pressure the engine works against as it clears spent gas. It's the first component in the exhaust, sitting right at the engine, with everything else behind it. On the MX-5's four-cylinder DOHC that's a single tubular set. It's a head-end breathing change only; it doesn't alter the engine's capacity or fuelling.

What does the FX-353 cover?

This listing is the extractor set itself, not a full exhaust. It's specified for the NA-generation MX-5 with the 1.8 DOHC, from November 1993 to 1997 — the later 1.8 NA cars, separating it from the earlier 1.6 version of the same roadster. The engine, head and generation are what decide the fit. Tube diameter, material and finish aren't published by the supplier here, so we'd confirm those with MPI Automotive when you order rather than state figures the record doesn't carry.

Will it suit my MX-5?

It's listed to fit the MX-5 NA 1.8 DOHC, November 1993 to 1997. The 1.8 engine, the DOHC head and the NA generation are the lines that pin this set down, so confirm yours is the 1.8 NA before ordering. Give us your engine and build date and we'll match it to the listing — fitment is listed-to-fit, not guaranteed, because feed data can be imperfect.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits MX-5 extractor sets in-house across the Illawarra. The job means unbolting the old manifold from the head, sealing the new set with fresh gaskets and confirming it ties cleanly into the existing pipework. Send us your MX-5's engine and build date and we'll verify the FX-353 before booking the bay.

Common questions

Which MX-5 does the FX-353 suit?
It's listed for the NA-generation MX-5 1.8 DOHC, November 1993 to 1997. Confirm your engine and build date with the workshop, as the earlier NA ran a 1.6.
Is this a full exhaust system?
No. It's the extractor set that replaces the manifold at the head. The pipework and muffler behind it are separate.
What material are the extractors?
Material isn't published by the supplier in this listing. We can confirm it with MPI Automotive when you order through us.
