oh boy, here it comes. I can hear it now. "My CAI adds 10 HP, it says so" The only way you can take HP numbers as fact is if there is a dyno chart with it. There is no way to tell how much power a modification adds without the dyno.

I saw in a magazine that mine was 215hp... it must be true! Probably because of my cone air filter and my stickers ;)

Well this past weekend me and my friend went to the local "Pick and Pull" junk yard and found a newly wrecked Lamborghini Murcielago. We pulled the 6.2 Liter V12 from it that makes 580 HP. it only cost me $500!!! Well anyway we dropped it in my MP3. Just finished last night. I just drove it this morning and although my stock MP3 was pretty powerful as it was, I can already REALLY feel a difference. I will get it dynod as soon as possible to see exactly what the gains were but I bet they are significant. I cant wait to find a civic SI or a Neon RT at a stop light. Maybe even an RSX. I'm pretty sure I'll smoke them. :D ;)

BTW, just FYI, I suspect that the Diablo and Murcielago cars are built on the same platform as our Proteges because the engine fit in perfectly!!! Now I know how everyone is sayong how the Pros and the Focus are pretty much the same but I think maybe they need to take a closer look at the Lamborghinis more closely. The similarities are uncanny!! They are almost the same car except for a few minor things. I think the Lambo is just on a stretched chasis. Anyways, I am gonna start lokking at Lamborghini performance sites to see if I can find any compatible parts that we can use on our MP3's. I'll call around and let you know what I find. I highly reccomend this. It makes quite a difference. Just go to your nearest junkyard and look around. It shouldnt be too hard to find a Murcielago or a Diablo. Good Luck! :D :D :D ;) :rolleyes:

Well if you did, yur hella lucky.... Also if you did was this the the U.S.A or some other country? :eek:

OMG Leonardo, I thought I was the only one pulling Lamborghini engines from junkyards! Before I had my MP3 I had a Geo Metro and I did the EXACT same thing! I swear, I owned the road!! But I think the vinyl stickers were what really gave me a 9-second car :D

I would have to give the 2 peeps that believed the story a 1% credit ( out of 100 ) Beacuse at least they bought an MP3. ( at least there's 1498 other peeps who hopefully have a clue ) But they had better check under the hood of the MP3 for that WONKA'S Golden Ticket For all the free stuff from Mazda. Only 1 of 1500 :D
