Just a heads up this unit although says fits up to 2023 miatas does fit the new 2024 models as well ….. but as some people called out in the reviews I would recommend ordering longer bolts as well to make installation easy….. I had them just in case and ended up using the longer bolts vs stock …. I’m a newbie when it comes to working on car and was nervous about doing this solo vs a shop installing it but after a few videos to know what to do I was able to install the unit in about 20 mins. Sounds amazing and gives the car alittle more growl when you hit the gas peddle.I used WD40 on the 4 rubber mounts to drop the muffle after the two bolts came off so anyone can do this at home on there own

I installed a VersaTune " Cracks & Pops " tune on my car before any exhaust work. I could not hear one crack or pop. I installed this Borla exhaust and I can now hear the pops. The car sounds so much better now. I am installing a Skunk2 header and a Fab9 custom tune tomorrow to really wake up this car but for today I just wanted to hear the Borla. I highly recommend this exhaust. The only issue I had was the right rear hanger arm was bent and only fit half way in the rubber bushing. It was probably due to shipping but I just used a little force to bend it back and we're golden!

Great sound. Easy solo install in less than an hour. No regrets even with the price.

Fitted on my brand new MX-5 RF GT to get a better sound note. Works perfectly. Very impressive

If your looking for an easy to install exhaust with excellent sound and most importantly NO DRONE! Then this is the exhaust for you! It is loud enough but not to the point that it's obnoxious. It's not annoying in the highway or long drives which is very important and you can definitely hear your radio with no issues. It is tuned perfectly. One thing to keep in mind in the installation is Mazda's stupid bolts. When you try to loosen it one or both may spin out there is an easy solution by using the double nut method but other than that it was very easy. One thing that may be a con, is that this exhaust is way smaller than the original (attached picture) and may mess with the aerodynamics on the underside of the vehicle on the rear but there are other solutions that you can do like a rear diffuser. The tips are atrocious but that can be remedied by buying aftermarket tips. The only other thing that I think can improve this product is probably a midpipe as this would probably make the sound a lot more throatier. Also I think this axle back exhaust is a little bit overpriced and I think probably 500 should have been fairly priced. I have another vehicle (VW) that I fitted with a catback from borla and I paid about $200 more brand new. I bought this at the time of writing at $695. Overall you can't go wrong with this exhaust.

Well I took it upon myself to install this. The whole thing took about 2 hours as I was moving pretty slow. The exhaust hangers were a real pain to take off but I sprayed some WD-40 on them and that helped. The two studs on the mid pipe were really on there so I sprayed some PB Blaster and that worked. After another set of hands to hold the new exhaust, I was able to hang it.Then I was able to put one of the two studs on the exhaust flange but this being aftermarket, the flange will not fit evenly over the mid pipe so I had to have an exhaust shop put the other bolt on. It sounds good, little louder than I had anticipated. However, for the money it is a good upgrade.

This exhaust sounds awesome from a cold startup and right up to the red line. My only complaints are that you are expected to reuse the OEM gasket (not really a big problem for me because my car is new) and it is a little louder than this old fart would have liked. But it is livable and at cruising RPMs (approx. 1800 - 2600 RPM) at low throttle input, it quiets down enough to not piss off the neighbours. This exhaust system is an easy install and requires only basic tools along with either jack stands or ramps.

VERY loud exhaust, which is amazing if you prefer that! The tone is deep and bassy and has no raspiness. Installation was super easy, just 4 rubber hangers and 2 bolts. I recommend spraying WD-40 on the flange bolts/studs but not the bolts on the other end in order to ensure that the studs come out easy, otherwise you're going to need a 13mm deep socket to get the stud out of the OEM exhaust. Otherwise, the only other thing you'll need is a 14mm socket. The flange doesn't have the bolts welded to it on this exhaust, they are in the bag with the instruction booklet! The hat and stickers that this exhaust comes with are great quality as well. This was my first purchase from Borla and I will definitely be buying more of their products in the future.

Simple install. Two bolt/stud flange, 4 rubber hangers. Put it on a 2017, ND, GT automatic. Below 2500 rpm the sound is negligible. Above that it sounds great. Have to turn up the radio a bit. I don't know why for over a year Amazon said it would fit. I did buy it and it does fit easily. Now Amazon says it won't fit an ND, ridiculous system issue. FYI I also have a K&N air filter fwiw.

Arrived with insufficient/incorrect hardware. The OEM piece has flange bolts welded to the exhaust . This product does not, which means they should have included stainless bolts, which they did not, nor are they shown on the parts diagram/instructions, which means they have no idea how the OEM is made...Not a great thing to find out Saturday night of July 4 weekend.

This is a great upgrade to the stock Mazda MX-5 ND. I have a 2017 RF model and it sounds great with the top up or down. Installation was very quick at around 15 minutes from start to finish. Make sure you don't throw away the copper nut that comes with the documentation! The sound of this system is just great. While at idle it's pretty quiet but as soon as you get under load it sounds amazing with a nice crisp and throaty sound when engine breaking at lower RPMs. I noticed an increase in fuel economy as well: from 27 mpg to 31 mpg in the city and on the highway I get over 40 mpg. There's really nothing bad to say about this system.
