MX5 NB2 Boundary Billet Oil Pump Gears (New) (Aftermarket)

Upgrading to these gears is crucial for any MX5 seeking to handle a higher rev limiter or increased power. It’s recommended for vehicles with over 300 horsepower. Without these gears, the stock oil pump gears may fail under shock loading, caused by boost cut or hitting the RPM limit, which could lead to catastrophic engine failure.

Installing these gears is like obtaining insurance for your engine, especially if you’ve recently built a forged engine with new pistons, rods, and bearings. Protect your investment against potential oil pump failure. The sintered gears in the stock oil pump can only handle a stress level of about 6KSI before failing. These upgraded gears are made of 90Ksi steel, offering a significant structural enhancement. They are designed specifically for the VVT Oil pump, which has a higher output volume.

This part fits all 2001-2005 cars with either 1.6 or 1.8 engines and a VIN greater than 2157706.
