Mazda 3 SkyActiv Short Ram Performance Air Intake

CorkSport began development of the new SkyActiv intake as soon as the technology was made available in the United States and today is happy to be the first Mazda aftermarket performance company to add a short ram intake for the 2012+ SkyActiv Mazda 3 and 2013+ Mazda CX-5 to its catalog of Mazda performance parts.

Engineered with exacting tolerances, the CorkSport Mazda SkyActiv Intake includes our precision machined MAF housing made from billet aluminum, durable dry flow air filter and custom reinforced silicone connector. In initial testing on the SkyActiv Mazda CX5, the CorkSport SkyActiv Short Ram Intake netted peak gains of +5 HP and +6 lb torque.

CorkSport has already confirmed the fitment of the single exit Mazda 3 exhaust for the SkyActiv Mazda 3 and made it available to the public and is happy to be able to add a second performance offering designed for the SkyActiv technologies developed by Mazda to increase fuel efficiency and engine output.

As with all CorkSport Mazda SRIs, the SkyActiv Short Ram Intake comes with a two-year limited warranty, full-color installation instructions, and CorkSport service and support. For added support, this kit also has a complete installation video.

The CX-5 SkyActiv intake can be purchased separately in our newly added CorkSport CX5 catalog and the Mazda 3 SkyActiv Intake can be purchased as an option that has been added to the CorkSport Power Series 2.0 Liter Mazda 3 intake.

Product Release! CorkSport SkyActiv Mazda 3 Power Series Single Exit Exhaust

CorkSport is pleased to expand our single exit exhaust offering to include the new Mazda 3 SkyActiv model!

The CorkSport Power Series Single Exit 60mm Exhaust has been designed to work with both the 2010+ sedans and hatchback trim standard 2.0 liter and SkyActiv engine models.

Featuring dual resonators, a slip fit compression connection to the aft end of the catalytic converter and a single tailpipe design, the CorkSport Mazda 3 exhaust replaces the factory tailpipe muffler with polished 2.4 ID stainless steel piping and non-resonated CorkSport dual wall 90mm exhaust tip.

During testing with the CorkSport SRI and single exit exhaust on the 2.0 liter model, the CorkSport Mazda 3 Power Series Single Exit Exhaust went from a baseline of 118hp/110lb ft. of torque to a respectable 135hp and 123lb ft. of torque at the wheels.

The 2.0L results are moderate at the bottom end (with around a 4-5hp/tq gain) below 4000rpm with the majority of the power coming on rapidly at around 4500rpm and held steadily to the 7000rpm redline demonstrating the constrained nature of the stock system for the smaller 2.0L engine.

As with all of our CorkSport exhausts, the Power Series Mazda 3 single exit design features mandrel bent, polished stainless steel T304 construction for corrosion resistance and a clean stylish look. It has a distinctive performance sound that is mild but noticeable at cruise and idle and a distinctive growl at wide open throttle and free rev.

The CorkSport Power Series Mazda 3 SkyActiv Exhaust includes an optional 60mm racepipe with or without high flow catalytic converter that attaches between the factory header downpipe flange and the front compression fitting of the cat-back portion of the exhaust system

The CorkSport Power Series Mazda 3 SkyActiv Single Exit Exhaust is great for your hatchback model. For more information and complete pricing, please visit our product listing page at https://www.corksport.com/corksport-power-series-exhaust-system-mazda-3.html

Product Release! CorkSport Mazdaspeed 6 FMIC for SRI

Many of our Mazdaspeed 6 customers have been eagerly awaiting this announcement and today CorkSport would like to end the wait and announce the newest addition to our Front Mount Intercooler line with the CorkSport Front Mount Intercooler Kit for Short Ram Intake designed specifically for the Mazdaspeed 6!

Mazdaspeed 6 Front Mount Intercooler kit for an SRI

Designed to replace the restrictive top-mount intercooler, the CorkSport front-mounted kit has been developed for optimal placement in the path of the inflow ambient air, allowing for maximized heat dissipation and reduced heat soak, a common problem associated with the stock top-mounted intercooler location.

The kit features a 21x10x3” bar and plate intercooler core, mandrel bent and TIG welded polished aluminum intercooler piping and custom-reinforced silicone connectors made from multi-layer nylon braid to provide strength and a smooth internal transition for less turbulent airflow. The kit includes stainless steel T-bolt clamps to ensure an airtight seal all of the needed installation hardware and detailed installation instructions.

Front Mount Intercooler Product for 2006-2007 Mazdaspeed 6

During extensive testing, the CorkSport Mazdaspeed 6 Front Mount Intercooler showed an average pressure drop of 1.5-2 psi and a 10 to 1 temperature drop, meaning for every ten degrees of inlet temperature, the outlet temperature of the intercooler only goes up one degree.

The kit has been designed to integrate seamlessly with our popular CorkSport Stage II Power Series Short Ram Intake and can be purchased as a standalone kit to compliment your current short ram intake or can be purchased with the CorkSport Power Series Short Ram Intake for additional savings and power gains.

Product Re-Release! CorkSport Mazdaspeed Protege Downpipe

CorkSport is pleased to announce the re-release of the highly anticipated CorkSport Mazdaspeed Protégé downpipe!

The CorkSport downpipe has been expertly designed to replace the restrictive piping of the Mazdaspeed Protégé stock downpipe. Mandrel bent 63mm piping is used to create smooth exhaust flow for dramatic increases in power. For lasting corrosion resistance and reduced heat transfer to the engine bay, the CorkSport downpipe uses polished T304 stainless steel and features TIG welds that offer superior arc and weld puddle control for a cleaner appearance and precise weld bead control.

The CorkSport Mazdaspeed Protégé Downpipe can be purchased today at the following link, https://www.corksport.com/corksport-power-series-downpipe-mazdaspeed-protege.html

The CorkSport Mazdaspeed Protégé Downpipe is just one of three parts that CorkSport has released in recent months to support the Protégé community.

Earlier this month we released the Mazdaspeed Protégé Intercooler Hose Kit designed to replace the stock rubber hose with strong, flexible, reinforced silicone that will allow for ideal flow in and out of the intercooler.

And late last year, CorkSport released the 2001-2003 Mazda/Mazdaspeed Protégé Skid Tray which will provide solid protection against rocks and road debris and is designed to prevent damage to key components of the undercarriage of the vehicle.
