The XForce 2.5" performance centre section for the Mazda MX-5 / Miata NC. It is a direct replacement for the restrictive factory centre section between the header and the rear muffler, built from 2.5" mandrel-bent 304 grade stainless steel pipework in a brushed finish, with two 304 stainless hotdog-style resonators integrated into it. It retains the original bowl flange connection to the header and the original ring flange connection to the rear muffler, keeps the factory exhaust hanger locations, and carries factory-style O2 sensor ports for cars fitted with post-catalytic oxygen sensors. It is supplied in two pieces joined by a slip-joint connection.
The mandrel bending matters as much as the 2.5" figure itself, because a mandrel bend holds the bore at full diameter through each curve instead of pinching it where the pipe turns, so the flow path stays the same size at the bends as on the straights. Using 304 stainless for the resonator bodies as well as the pipework means the whole section shares the same corrosion resistance, not just the parts on show. The slip joint between the two halves is the practical detail: the pieces can be slid and rotated against each other on the car, so the bowl flange at the header, the ring flange at the muffler and the factory hanger points can all be brought into line before the joints are secured. That suits an owner after better flow and a deeper tone with the factory rear muffler still in place, or with an upgraded axle-back fitted behind it.
