HKS Toyota GR86 with the HKS "Oil Slick" livery at the 2022 Osaka Auto Messe. HKS Co., Ltd. (株式会社エッチ・ケー・エス, Kabushiki-gaisha Ecchi Kē Esu) is a publicly traded company headquartered in Fujinomiya, Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan specializing in the engineering, manufacturing, and sales of high performance aftermarket and accessory automotive parts and components.
The vehicle was released in the third quarter of 2015. In the US, the list price of the MX-5 was between $24,915 and $30,065. [10] On March 24, 2016, the MX-5 was awarded World Car of the Year (WCOTY) and the World Car Design of the Year at the New York International Auto Show, being the second Mazda to win WCOTY following the Mazda2 in 2008.

Spec Racing continues in Later Models of the NC and ND chassis Miatas, though they are not intended to serve as a replacement to the NA-NB based "Spec Miata". A new MX-5 Cup (professional class) based on the ND series MX-5 costs $80,000 turnkey, [ 3 ] and champions of the national series can win over $200,000 to advance up the motorsport ladder.
The MX-5 was unveiled at the Chicago Auto Show on February 10, 1989, with a price tag of US$14,000 (equivalent to $34,412 in 2023). [4] The MX-5, with production code NA, was made available for delivery to buyers worldwide in the following dates: May 1989 (as a 1990 model) in the US and Canada; September 1, 1989 in Japan; and 1990 in Europe.
Introduced at the 2012 Leipzig Motor Show, [41] the MX-5 "Yusho" is a limited version of the MX-5 with a supercharged 2.0-liter MZR petrol engine featuring a supercharger kit by Flyin' Miata and Cosworth pistons as well as connecting rods rated at 241 PS (177 kW; 238 hp) and 274 N⋅m (202 lb⋅ft) at 5,450 rpm, top speed of 240 km/h (149 mph ...
A compressor map is a chart which shows the performance of a turbomachinery compressor. This type of compressor is used in gas turbine engines, for supercharging reciprocating engines and for industrial processes, where it is known as a dynamic compressor. A map is created from compressor rig test results or predicted by a special computer program.
An Eaton M62 Roots-type supercharger is visible at the front of this Ecotec LSJ engine in a 2006 Saturn Ion Red Line.. The Roots-type blower is simple and widely used. It can be more effective than alternative superchargers at developing positive intake manifold pressure (i.e., above atmospheric pressure) at low engine speeds, making it a popular choice for passenger automobile applications.
Positive displacement superchargers deliver an almost constant level of boost pressure increase at all engine speeds, while dynamic superchargers cause the boost pressure to rise exponentially with engine speed (above a certain threshold). [4] Another family of supercharger, albeit rarely used, is the pressure wave supercharger.
