What does it take to build the ultimate supercharged ND2? 🏁

​A huge thank you to for dropping by BBR HQ to test our 300 BHP development car on Tecna suspension by SuperMiata—we let the driving do the talking. His verdict? "One of the best versions of the best cars ever made."

​What makes this the premier package on the market is the engineering beneath the surface:

​Preserved Factory Architecture: Truly bolt-on with zero cutting, welding, or permanent modifications. The OEM battery, single drive belt layout, and original dynamic belt tensioner are all fully maintained.

​Unrestricted Top End: Secondary port injection alongside our standalone CAN ECU and integrated datalogger eliminate stock direct-injection fueling walls, pulling cleanly to 7,800 RPM.

​Factory Civility: Perfected Speed Density mapping and seamless transient AFR fueling mean stock manners around town with supercar pace on demand.

​⚠️ Pre-Press Release Exclusive: The official press release and conversion launch will be next month.

Another ND transformed at BBR HQ! 🚀

Jon brought us his stunning Soul Red Mazda MX-5 ND1 Recaro Edition for the ultimate performance overhaul, leaving Brackley with a serious leap in power and agility.

Under the bonnet, we installed our BBR Stage Two Supercharger conversion, paired with a full BBR stainless steel exhaust system (manifold through to tailpipes). The result? An extra 90 BHP on tap, giving this ND linear, effortless power delivery that pulls relentlessly right to the redline, accompanied by a glorious soundtrack.

Power without control is wasted, so we also treated John’s ND to our signature BBR Fast Road suspension geometry setup. Dialling in the alignment transforms how the chassis loads up, sharpening turn-in, settling mid-corner balance, and giving complete confidence on twisting B-roads.

Swipe through to see the engine bay install, the BBR exhaust details, and John ready for the drive home!

Turn your volume up for this one. 🔊

JayEmm on Cars just dropped his review of an NC fitted with our BBR Super 225 package, and safe to say, he was blown away by the 225bhp ITB soundtrack.

His only real gripe? The chassis. We spotted the culprit right away: lowering springs paired with stock dampers. Easily our least favourite setup on the NC — under-damped, out of stroke, and constantly riding on its bump stops!

It’s classic proof that power needs the chassis to match. Pair this package with our BBR springs and Koni Sport adjustable dampers, or step up to Yellow Speed Dynamic Pro Sport coilovers, and the car becomes the composed, giant-killing B-road weapon it was meant to be.

Another Flat-Out Week! 🏎️💨

It has been non-stop around here lately, with plenty of variety coming through the doors:

ND & ND2s: In for BBR manifolds and custom maps.

NCs: In for our popular Super 200 upgrades.

MK3.5s (Watch out for this!): We've had two in this week with OEM manifold failure where the failing catalysts ended up blocking the centre section exhaust. Definitely something to keep an eye on if you drive a 3.5! Both received BBR Super 185's.

This Week’s Highlights:

Simon & Sons' Track Car: We gave this hardworking NC a new lease on life with a factory-fresh 2.5 engine, paired with BBR cams and a custom map to replace a tired, worn-out 2.0. Built for the track!

Simon’s NC Kuro (A different Simon!): This stunning Kuro received our Stage One Supercharged conversion, transforming its daily drive into something truly special.

We want to know what you think: Are you team Naturally Aspirated purity, or do you prefer the rush of Forced Induction?

🚗💨 Another landmark BBR build hits the road!

Check out Mike's mint Launch Edition MX-5 ND RF, in with us for a complete BBR overhaul including our BBR Turbo conversion, tuned suspension, and upgraded braking package.

Mike is absolute loyalty personified—this marks his fifth BBR-tuned car! Over the years, he's built an incredible BBR garage, having previously owned:

BBR Mk1 Turbo

BBR NC Super 200

BBR NC Turbo

Launch Edition ND RF BBR Turbo

Finding his second Launch Edition RF in this pristine condition with such exceptionally low mileage is rare enough, but with full BBR power, handling, and stopping capability, it’s in a league of its own.

Huge thanks to Mike for his continued trust and passion over the years. Enjoy the boost! 🙌🏁

Apologies for the quiet spell—we've been flat out! Lots of build updates coming soon, but first a critical reminder for all NC drivers:

👉 Check your engine oil level every 2 tanks of fuel! ⛽

A customer popped by today with a worrying engine rattle. We knew the cause immediately, killed the ignition, and had to add over 2 litres of oil just to get a reading on the dipstick.

Check out the state of these bearing shells attached 😱—oil starvation acts fast! Luckily, because it was caught just in time, we’re confident we can save this engine without a full engine-out rebuild or replacement/reground crankshaft.

A 2-minute dipstick check every few fill-ups can literally save you thousands. Don't risk it—check yours today!
