View Full Version : My new MP3 is FAST!
turkish
10-20-2001, 12:37 PM
I got me a MP3 about two weeks ago and it is FAST! I have added a few mods such as exhaust, air intake, and a few other performance parts and now I am almost pushing 200hp! I have a custom 3 layer wing, some Yokohama rims and an awesome graphic “paint” job. I was going down the freeway around me house yesterday and a fairly new Porche (maybe a Boxter) started messing with me and I blew its doors off. It didn’t even stand a chance! The MP3 is the best buy for performance and speed! Keep it up!

I wish this is true, but this is impossible in real. You will never get up to 200hp with just an exhaust, air intake, and few other mods. And you won’t able to blow the boxter doors even with 200hp. :p
Maybe your graphics can boost another 100hp.
Keep it up :D :D :D

Yokohama rims huh, hehe, thats funny man.

There is more done than just a "few" mods, but I am not going to sit here and break all of them down. I had it tested out and it is running around 200hp. And the Porche run in really did happen, but I am not sure if it was a Boxter. I think my new yellow fog lights helped me out a lot, but I am just guessing. Peace!

What the fuck is wrong with you motherfucker there is no fuckin way you got two hundred fucken horse power out of a fucken NA 4-C POS! It is just like those fucken civic drivers don't know what the fuck real HP is or fucken feels like. With your fuckin butt dyno I bet it did feel like 200 fuckin hp because you just got it up the fuckin ass and you were fuckin tingling. Wake up you fuck and buy a real sports car to front your lame game dizog. Fizzle whizzle dizzle my bizzle.
P.S. You need to whack it more often to let go of that pent up frustration of being a FUCKEN LOSER!!!

Guess what dude? The boxter is the lowest and slowest model Proche made. Still, you won't stand a chance to win.
There is no way to get 200hp on the wheels out of our MP3, without a turbo or supercharge. I know you love your MP3, but reality is reality.

I think this kid is full of s h i t. It's not economically possibly to get the MP3 to run 200whp without N2O or somekind of forced induction. Come on guys, we all agree that the parts just not out there. I'm curious to see what the Touring Championship Protege ES is putting to the wheels though.

Nah, let's keep the thread open and just ignore him. Anyway, the other day I put a refundable deposit down on a 2001 mazda protege mp3. I'm thinking about buying it and dropping a turbo kit or a supercharger in it. BUT, I keep hearing that the 2002 model will have one pre-installed and will be 200+HP. Have you guys heard anything? BTW, what should my ceiling price be for the 2001?

200 to the wheel? 200 to the crank? which one are you referring to?
I highly doubt you'll break into 200s with just minor bolt ons.
This has to be a joke. No way !!!
60 hp more at the flywheel or any where else with bolt on mods is impossible !!
MP3Ben
10-22-2001, 02:35 PM
LOL so here we are again...
Turkish now here's the deal (whether you're an MP3 owner or just another flamer with a V8): Japanese spec MP3 engine puts out 170hp at the crank. What does it have that's better than ours? High compression pistons, better intake/exhaust cams, and a performance header.
You can do all this, add an intake and full catback, heck even get an ignition system, and the MP3 would probably never go over 180 AT THE CRANK tops. On the dyno, it would probably look more like 150ish at the wheels.
Thats pretty much the extent of bolt-on mods available for our car at this point. I know all this coz it's what I'm planning to do to my car (with possible exception to the ignition, and maybe I'll throw in a S-AFC). Like the others say, there's no way to go over 200 on our NA engine at the crank, or at the wheels with bolt-ons.
But for me, 170-180hp at the crank is already just fine...
As for the swearing idiot a few posts up, get a life. Don't stress your brain too much using up all your limited vocabulary! :D

Hey...again, looking to buy an MP3 and turbocharging it or supercharging it. Does anyone know of any kits out there that will DEFINITELY work with the MP3? Below is an email reply from Jackson Racing to me...
Unfortunately, we do not make a supercharger that can be used on the
protege. Sorry I could not be of further assistance.

Hi...I'm looking into buying a 2001 Mazda Protege MP3. I know that it uses
the Ford Focus engine, and I was wondering if your focus supercharger would
fit on it. My guess is that it would, but I'm not sure if it would fit
under the lower hood as well as the strut bar. Please get back to me

A few people said that you can't get 200 hp with a NA 4 cylinder. Haha. I know this dipshit doesn't have 200 HP, but you can get 250-300 HP out of a NA 4 cyl easy. Bore it, stroke it, bigger cams, intake manifold, exhaust, head work, all that can give ya 300 HP at the crank. There are ALOT of Honda guys in my town, alot of my friends drive Hondas. We have gotten 275 HP @ the wheels with a B18C (Integra GSR Engine) with no forced induction or NOS. Bored it .30 over and put a stroker kit in it, Skunk Works Cams and a few Spoon Sports parts. So all you dicks out there bitching about 4 cyl POS's, I got news for ya, V8's are a thing os the past, I can get the same HP from a 4 cyl. Why go buy a Camaro with a fucking V8? If you were a real car buff you would buy a Honda with a 4 cyl and build it up to 400 HP, thats a challenge.
Any idiot can buy a Camaro with 300 HP, but thats what you haters are, idiots.
NC_MP3
10-23-2001, 10:46 PM
Oh, and not to be a smart ass or anything, but 60 extra HP from a few bolt ons IS possible hehe. I didn't think so either till I read this months Import Tuner. They added an intake, exhaust, and a downpipe to a turbo Supra. The intake alone added 25 HP!!! All 3 parts added like 75 HP and only cost about $1500! Took the HP on the Supra to like 420! Man, talk about a great car to mod, wish I could afford a turbo Supra hehe.
Brian
10-24-2001, 12:27 AM
it would be possable to get 200 ponys at the wheels.. you guys do know that we have a OBD2 version of the 2.0L that was in the Ford Probe's .. the FZE engin "J-Spec" has close to 200 ponys.. and dont forget to check out my posting on the cheep turbo system .. when we are done the answer to the dreaded Question " Is that the new Subaru i saw on TV" we can say no its faster...
Maz2001MP
02-12-2002, 11:44 PM
Not to be a smartass either NC_MP3 but, correct me if i'm wrong, there are 2 reasons why that Supra got so much more horses out of little bolt-ons..one, it's turbo and two, it is a straight six cylinder engine...by adding an exhaust to an 4 banger car stock would give you hardly any horsepower and some torque at the wheels...but like you said doing port polish, bore and stroke, etc. power can def. be pushed over 200whp..

The speed vision world challange car puts out 190 max, they are regulated to that # so they can keep in the class, they also have 215 tourqe. This post is alot of fun to read, but anyone who claims they mod they're car and dosent know a porshe, is an idiot. If its a boxer its a boxer, there is no debate, they look nothing like the 911' ors teh GT2s. And about getting a 2.0 over 200 w/ bolt ons is imposible. unless its a turbo kit. And when you bore and engine, the displacment goes up. Thats the idea. So if you bore it out your creating a higher litre engine. If you want to see a well built engince, look at the Honda S2000, 250hp stock out of a 2 litre. Good luck with proving your moronic claim turkish. and pics of you engine wont prove you make 200 hp. Give me a dyno sheet, then you can talk.

Were you dropped repeatedly as a child? A good intake, catback exhaust and headers might get you 10-12 HP peak. My math tells me that makes about 150 HP, assuming you believe Mazda's claim that the MP3 makes any more power than the P5. A little shy of 200 methinks.

The MP3 can barely keep up with most traffic in a straight line... as far as blowing the doors off a Porsche Boxster... it's possible, although I seldom see Boxsters parked in the middle of a freeway...

02-13-2002, 10:08 PM
I am a porsche lover and also a mazda driver.
I dont know how you do it (if it possible), but one possibility that the porsche have clutch slip or missing gear. As you guys who have ever drive any 911 ( i got 996 gemballa ), porsche car is very hard to drive because their clutch is very hard. if you push the clutch too deep you will jump start the car, mean while if you push it too light the engine will die.
I put GIAC chip and Fabspeed exhaust (full), the car show 270hp at the wheels, thats about 330-360hp at engine.
There is no way a 140 hp mp3 with whatever (nos or turbo) will beat my porsche without any driver mistake.
i hope this explain.

Anyone notice how we haven't heard from our 200HP MP3 friend in this thread for a while?
200 HP IS possible with a 4-banger - ever hear of the Honda S2000? 240 horse 2.4 L four, with no forced induction and a 9000 rpm redline.
But on an MP3 with "a few mods" - ummmm.....hell no, sorry.
And the dude driving the Boxster must have been drunk, or maybe he was letting this guy win for the laughs. He didn't win for real - I'd bet my left testicle on it.
