Cobra Sport MZ10 Resonated Dual Exit Cat-Back Performance Exhaust
Cobra Sport resonated dual-exit cat-back performance exhaust for Mazda MX-5 Mk4 / ND 1.5 and 2.0 models from 2015 onwards applications listed in the compatibility table.
The MZ10 replaces the original centre and rear exhaust sections from the second catalytic converter rearwards, upgrading the MX-5 ND to a dual-exit rear layout with outlets positioned on both sides of the vehicle.
Manufactured from mandrel-bent T304 stainless steel, the system uses 2.5" / 63.5 mm pipework and TIG-welded construction. The MZ10 is the resonated version of Cobra Sport's dual-exit system and includes a centre silencer for a more controlled exhaust note than the non-resonated MZ11 alternative.

Exhaust configuration: The MZ10 is the resonated version of Cobra Sport's MX-5 ND dual-exit cat-back system and includes a centre silencer. Customers wanting the louder alternative should consider the corresponding non-resonated MZ11 system.
Sound: Cobra Sport describes the resonated system as having a subtle but sporty tone. Published test data for the 2.0-litre MX-5 shows 69.8 dB at idle and 91.2 dB during a static 4,000 rpm test.
Fitment advice: The system replaces both the original centre and rear exhaust sections. For best results, loosely assemble the complete system before fully tightening the joints so that both rear outlets can be positioned evenly and accurately within the dual-exit rear panel.
Other items to consider: A compatible dual-exit lower rear panel / diffuser is required to complete the conversion and is sold separately. The standard rear bumper layout does not provide the correct openings for this exhaust configuration.
Useful tools / consumables: Vehicle lift or securely rated axle stands, socket and spanner set, penetrating fluid, exhaust-hanger removal tool or suitable pliers, torque wrench and suitable exhaust assembly compound where required.
Difficulty guide: Advanced / professional fitting recommended. Installation involves replacement and alignment of a multi-section cat-back system together with fitting and aligning the required dual-exit rear panel.
Why Cobra Sport? Cobra Sport manufactures its performance exhaust systems in the UK using T304 stainless steel, mandrel-bent pipework and TIG-welded construction. The MZ10 combines a 2.5" / 63.5 mm cat-back system with a dual-exit layout and resonated centre section for a refined performance upgrade.
What's in the box: Cobra Sport MZ10 resonated dual-exit cat-back exhaust with the selected tailpipe configuration, together with the relevant exhaust fittings and gaskets. The required dual-exit lower rear panel is not included.
Installation / setup notes: The system fits from the second catalytic converter rearwards. Align the exhaust and dual-exit rear panel together before fully tightening the exhaust joints to ensure correct outlet positioning and adequate clearance around the bumper openings.
Warranty: Cobra Sport offers a lifetime guarantee to the original purchaser on eligible car exhaust systems, subject to its current terms and conditions. Please refer to Cobra Sport's current warranty terms for registration requirements and exclusions applicable to this product.
